I'm a'guessin' that with an 8" woofer, never mind the low sensitivity, the speakers are dynamically challenged regardless of power. With many small woofer box speakers the woofer compresses at fairly low levels and more power is just converted to heat rather than more output. Meanwhile the treble drivers haven't compressed yet leading to a change in tonal balance as the speaker gets louder.
Just guessing.
