Even though I enjoy some of the classical music JohnK has recommended, it is not the only Genre that has 15-20dB dynamic peaks. Polka?

Polka? My wife would love a night out with you, Randy. And if you square-dance maybe she'll even trade up  . He has plenty of room for 18 dB peaks provided his Yammy is clean up to 100W.

Alex, neither "night/day" nor "just a bit", but most likely no difference at all. Unless you listen at an extremely high average level(damaging to hearing)your present amplification should be fine. Average comfortably loud levels use about 1 watt, and some pop music with very little dynamic range(almost uniformly loud)doesn't take much more. Material with a wide dynamic range, such as much of the classical music that I listen to and some pop material and movies requires much more on brief peaks, but even then isn't likely to exceed the maximum capacity of your present amplifier in the 2200.
-----------------------------------
Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I was actually wondering what a difference I would hear (ie. crisper, more detailed, louder, better sounding, etc).
Like I said some M80s will give you the crisper, clearer, sound compared to the M60s. You might find them more detailed as well as the mids and highs are more forward so you hear them more.

One movie I never get tired of is "Uncle Buck."

My first date with my wife was to Uncle Buck and right now I always think of Polka and Home Alone pops into my thoughts, as my kids really like that movie.

Why is it to this day, I can not see or hear the word Polka without picturing John Candy in 'Plains, Trains and Automobiles'? By far, one of my favorite holiday movies! Strike that, one of my favorite movies period.
