To capture the full dynamics of the speakers, I would choose from old school the MC7300, if you like tubes, a pair of 275's for 200 watts, two 2301's for 300 + watts. For classic sound a pair of 3500's. But to be practical I would look for a pre-owned MC352, great sound and with effort reasonable pricing. I always want a dynamic range potential of 110 db. So from 93 to 116 db takes 200 watts. From 1 meter listening to 3 meters with 2 speakers equals appox 110 db, a perfect match. Now most folks don't listen at these levels, but instantaneous peaks of over 10 db are possible and having that potential head room is very important.
