I do enjoy the power of the Gold but I have a feeling it won't be more powerful now than the Classic. At 70-75 % volume It seems that the Gold can't push more power on the low end, only on mids and highs. It gets louder but I want that sweet rumbling it's capable of. Two whites certainly will be good but how much more powerful would two Golds be. The Gold also seem to not come truly alive until around 50-60% volume, is this the case with the white as well?It is different listening to a single one than a pair. I have a large room with high ceilings and at 50%, the Golds easily fill the room. The sound stage of a stereo pair is what fills the room. A single one has a much smaller soundstage, even at very high volumes.
I'm sorry for asking questions that are similar.
Suggest you go into a Devialet store and listen to a stereo pair to understand. If there is no convenient Devialet store, go to one which sells wireless speakers e.g. Sonos and listen to the difference between a single one and a stereo pair.
You have to make a decision on whether you can afford 2 Golds, perhaps waiting for a few months? But if you cannot afford to buy 2 Golds, I am confident you will enjoy a stereo pair of Classic for a long time.
