Hansen Prince & tubed amps

I've been considering changing to the Hansen Prince, but am concerned that my amps - Shindo Sinhonia - which are rated at 40 watts, may not have sufficient power for these speakers which are rated at only 87db. Does anyone have experience with these Hansens and tubed amplification of comparable power? thanks.

Once again, thanks guys for those added comments. Much appreciated. It's certainly given me a better understanding of what to be looking for when matching speakers and power, as well as some speaker products to explore.

Kegonsan...let us know what direction you go with. Would be interested to see how you make out.

Charles1dad...you have a great looking (and I am sure sounding) system.

Cmalak & Charles1dad, i will give you an update on what i finally decide.
Charles, I too had a look at your set-up, and it does look very sharp - especially those Speakers!
cheers for now.

It really depends on what music you like, how loud you want to listen and your room size.

But generally speaking 40W are definitely not enough for this speaker.
