how much power

I do not have a good grip on amps. But i keep hearing about more power and more current !

I don't listen to music very loud... may be 75db at the most. The roomsize is 11 x 15. My speakers are Vienna Acoustics, Haydn Grand (4 ohm). Receiver is Denon 3311ci.

My question is really if i need need anything more than say 50 watts per channel ? Why ?

Get a Kreel amp and you will have all the power you will need. You can never have to much power.

Good suggestion about Kreel:-)! I'd probably pick KSA250. It drives anything by any means!

I once believed the"you can never have too much power" credo. With exposure to the high quality low watt amps I discovered superior sound and better music reproduction(more natural and real i.e. less hifi or canned).
As long as there`s sufficient power for a given speakerload, the simpler less complex amps usually out perform. YMMV.

Speakers with a minimalist xover do not require very much power to sound good. Many of these exotic multi way speakers have very complex xovers that require mucho dinero amplifiers with enough current to power a small village due to the xovers gobbling up half the power before reaching the drivers. YMMV
