I know many here disagree with me, but I am a strong advocate of powerful amplifiers for much better dynamics and less distortion on music peaks. It does depend on the size of the room, of course.
Minimum recommended amplification requirements and amplifier matching
If a speaker has a "recommended amplification requirement" between 80W-200W with a 90dB sensitivity what are the actual minimum amplification requirement? In particular, the Line Magnetic 211ia is rated at 15W triode and 32W ultralinear. Can smaller tube amplifiers provide enough wattage to drive speakers that require more than twice the recommended output?
