Should be OK. For fun one day I brought my Audience 42s out from my HT system and played them with my big rig's Lamm ML 1.1 amps (80 watts) with no problems. They sounded a lot better than with the Rotel amp that I used in the HT setup too. The 52s have more bass than the 42s, but otherwise are similar, I think. Any way that you try them with your amp before buying?
