Will Push-Pull Triode amp 20-25 WPC work?


I own a second generation pair of Allison 4 speakers, (2002) which are pristine. The room is 12 X 12, quiet to moderate sound levels, mostly classical, occasional jazz, Speaker sensitivity 87 db, 8 ohms. Can I get away with a triode amp (that I really want), like a 300B, putting out 22-25 WPC? And no, I dont want to change the speakers for 100 db sensitive ones, as I know I should, as these speakers work perfectly in the room, in my office, against the front wall, and are probably the best speakers Roy Allison made.

Thanks for your response. Maybe I can help you with your question: I too have a large room in the basement, similar to yours, and have Tyler Decade D10s, 91 db sensitivity and 8 ohms, and are driven to any sound level I wish with 30 WPC Class A Thor MPA amps. So go ahead:) Maybe so will I.
It would bve great to try - these days with everything bought on line and the paucity of dealers, how does one try?
Different location - office at work - but you are correct- it occurred to me to do that, although I believe the Thor is very conservatively rated.......
I just read the biasing instructions on a Canary Audio 301B before buying and find you have to take it apart each time which is the reason I sold my Jadis JOR. Any Triode PP 20 plus WPC 300B or 2a3 amps that are auto-bias or don't require dismantling to bias? Thanks for all your inputs- hi, Mike Swampwalker- nice to hear from you! Should I start a new thread to ask this?
