How much power is too much for a Quad 988?

Just bought a very nice pair of Quad 988s kind of on impulse and was quite surprised how nice they sound. Having said that, I have a PS Audio GCC250 and I am afraid even though I am very careful about volume levels in general these days am I flirting with disaster.
Question would come down to: since my amp is double plus the recommended 100watt/10V? output, am I just asking for trouble with this amount of power running through them ?

If you want a great, inexpensive backup amplifier (or main amplifier even) for the Quad 988's, get one of these:

I had 988's with this amplifier and was super impressed with the synergy.

That is an Aragon 2004 I am referring to.
