I'm running even lower sensitivity Dynaudio's with MC75 mono-blocks. I too was concerned about the amps not having enough power. True, I have to turn up the volume a little more than with the previous B&W's, but at 60 on the preamp it's too loud in my room. Hurts my ears. Disclaimer: this is a small room. A large room may well indeed need more power. And you can always mono-block 2 MC275's

When I spoke to Dynaudio in Europe they simply said "give it a try".
