Amp for Vandy 3A?

Hello-
I have a hybrid stereo amp from Blue Circle that's rated 80 watts into 8ohm, 100 watts into 4ohm. Is that enough/stable power to drive a pair of Vanderteen 3As? I've read these speakers may need more, but I've also read this would be enough power for moderate level listening. Or would I be better off in the 2CE sig, or sig II range..?

Happy Holidays!

I have had both 2s and 3s running on VTL 100s and Deluxe 120s. I didn't detect any difference in efficiency between the two. I had enough power for most situations, but I can tell you the 3s really like my JC-1s, so they will will give you more if you feed them.
