RE: how low can you go.....??

It can be difficult to precisely identify amplifier characteristics by ear. Some people have really well-trained hearing, somewhat akin to musicians with perfect pitch, but the majority of us aren't that blessed. There's a good possibility you would find the underlying cause for what you hear if you were to measure response and distortion. We've had this discussion before though, and I realize you're only interested in tuning the amp to suit your hearing. In that regard, it sounds like you're on the right path.
