Amp for Vandersteen 5A Carbons

Getting ready to, very possibly, make a deal for a pair of these Vandy's. Wondering if my amp will do. It is more than fine with my current speakers, some older Infinity's with powered side-firing subwoofers, but those speakers have a sensitivity of 96 dB. The Vandersteen's is 87 dB.

My amp is an Audio Research VT100. 100 watts/channel.

@jackd , gave you good advice.
The 5a Carbons have built in subs that relieve the amp from the power draining bass notes.
100wpc is fine.
If you want other opinions, go to the Vandersteen website and sign up for the forum.
