Recommended Power Amp watts vs Speaker Watt power handling ability


What would happen if I connected a pair of 8 Ohm speakers with recommended 100 - 200 watts (Monitor Audio Gold 300) to a power amp of 250 watts per channel into 8 Ohms (Primare A32)? Is it safe? Would the speakers be blown?

The best amps do  double. Something like big Krells or CJ 350 or the large Musical Fidelities. But these are expensive and heavy. Never depend one of the meters as they lag behind. The LEDs work well but I think they are out of fashion.
