Long time lurker on the forums, but finally made an account 
So I'm putting together my first home hi-fi system (that'll reside in my living room) and will pull double duties for music listening and for TV. My listening position will be the couch, which will be about 10 feet from the speakers. My main concern is whether the power amp I'm trying to purchase will be overkill for my speakers? I've seen a lot of conflicting things online so I'm pretty confused. I'll list the full setup I intend on purchasing below (I'm open to suggestions as well
).
-(2) Revel Concerta2 F35 *purchased*
-Nord One MP NC252 250W
-Mini DSP SHD Studio
-(2) Monoprice Liquid Spark DAC
-Rythmik L12 Subwoofer (will buy a second one later)
So from my intended setup, I'm planning on pairing the revel f35's with the Nord NC252 amp. At 8 ohms the amp delivers 200 watts (each channel) and at 4 ohms it delivers 250 watts. Since the f35 speakers are 6 ohms, I guess this would equate to about 225 watts of possible power each? If I'm correct with that assertion, this seemingly poses an issue since the recommended amp specs for the speakers are 30-180 watts each. So they can only handle 180 watts but I could potentially drive them with 225 watts if I turn up the volume high enough (from the SHD studio). Will this cause damage in a short burst of higher wattage?
Thanks in advance for any and all help!
