Amps For My Surround Sound Speakers


Greetings.  I recently acquired a set of Thiel PowerPoint 1.2 speakers to be used for surround sound and am looking for an amplifier to drive them.  Is the Bryston 3B's or 4B's too much power?  If so, would a 2B be sufficient?  Thanks.

Schiit Vidar should be considered 

The surround speakers are not intensely used in my opinion .

What do you mean by too much power?

You can play too loud but you can't have too much power....YMMV.

I have a pair of original Aerial Model 5's as rear speakers. They are sealed bookshelf speakers rated at 85 db rated at 4 ohms and 3 ohm minimum. I'm using a Bryston 2.5 sst 2 which is more than enough power.
