Vandersteen 5A and high power amps

I'm thinking of mating my Vandersteen 5A speakers with high power amplification, such as the new Spectron amps in monobloc configuration, rated at well over 1000 watts per channel. Vandersteen recommends up to 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms, so obviously a lot of care would be called for. Does anyone have experience mating these speakers with ultrahigh power amplification? Was there a real sonic benefit in doing so? Any negative experiences?

I have Been a Vandersteen dealer for over 20 years
Chads recommendation with the Aesthetix Atlas/Vandies is spot on
When you wish to take it to the next level experience the Atlas amp. They are also available in a 300/8ohm 600/4 ohm watt pc Mono black at 13k
It is a serious amp with frightening dynamics great clarity and has a neat stand system which means the amp sounds superb out of stand by.
The adjustable high pass is already inside, its a win/ win If your looking for you last amp this could be it
