Proac Studio 100 - will 35 wpc be enough?

Hi all, I am looking for advice from this competent forum. I am about to pull the trigger on a used Proac Studio 100 for about 500 USD (3500 Swedish crowns) which seems to be a good price. I have a tube amplifier, JJ Electronics 543, with 35 wpc. Does anyone know if that will be enought. I have read some mixed opinions about amplifier to the Proacs with opinions of them matching well with tubeamps, but also needs a lot of Power. Any experiences on this subject is highly appriciated!

Many thanks in advance.

/Chris

Chris,
Given your room size, listening levels and needs you'll be fine,  enjoy the speaker and amplifier pairing.

Chris,
As with Larryi I agree with the consensus of positive responses. Al raised a point that you need to contemplate, how loud is loud  enough for you and do you need 105 db peaks? The 2nd point is what genre of music do you listen to most often! ? These will certainly be influential factors in determining how much amplifier power is sufficient for your needs. As with Larryi I’m sonically more impressed with low to moderate power tube amplifiers.
Charles,
