i have noticed very recently a number of new posters with under say 20 posts coming on board and immediately or nearly so looking to open old arguments, pitch flack and pick fights with personal insults instead of reasoned commentary (this is my own observation and opinion). i have some questions if anyone is game.

I am looking at some used B&W CDM9 nt floor speakers. I have a Harman Kardon Award Series A500 Tube Amp that is rated 25 watts but probably puts out closer to 35 watts. The B&Ws are rated at 50-200w with 90db sensitivity. I am still unclear about comparing valve watts with solid state, so would my amp have a problem driving these? I am not looking to throw club parties or turn the bass way up. I just hope get some decent sound with my current setup and then upgrade my amp at a later date.
