Amp power change question for Sierra-1 (from 200 watt/channel to 125)

[makdoogle]

I am currently powering my L/R/C Sierra-1's with Outlaw 200 watt monoblock amps. I am changing things around and am thinking about changing these out with Outlaw's 125 watt per channel amp. How much of a difference can I expect dropping down to the 125 watt/channel amp? Thanks.

Unless you're playing at incredibly loud levels, I doubt you'll notice a difference at all. If you are playing at really loud levels, the 200 watt monoblocks will be able to handle peaks without distorting a little better (~2-3dB) than the 125 watt amps.
