is the nad 2400/1600 combo right for klipsch forte

i recently bought a nad 2400 power amp and the nad 1600 preamp/tuner to go with my 15 year old klipch forte's. it seems to my fried, 49 year old ears that the forte's have become more edgy and forward than i remember with my old nad 3130 integrated amp (30wpc). is it just me and a case of buyers remorse or is 100 wpc too much for these speakers. i listen at moderate levels to blues and jazz primarily. i have a funky technics cd changer that is next to go, could that be the root of all evil in my retro lo-budget system? any advice for cd player in the $250 range?
