Sierra amps with BAT VK5SE?

I hear the Sierra amps require careful matching due to their low impedence. Anyone know if the above combo would work? I have a BAT VKD5se source and Vandersteen 5's.

The amps input impedance is 100Kohms using the RCA inputs(single-ended). The 100k can drive any load. The amps impedance is low (2200ohms) when using the XLR (balanced) inputs only.If you use RCA's for your interconnects, then the amp will be a excellent match. Regards, KWP
