Do I have enough power to run PSB Image 5ts, others?hmf

I have an Onkyo TX-8511 integraged 2ch (100x2) amp/tuner. Is that enough to properly power Image 5ts? I'm also considering the PSB 4t, Stratus Bronze and NHT 2.5i From what I've read however, its sound like the NHTs need REAL power that my wimpy integrated probably can't provide. Since I'm focusing on speakers now and better amplification isn't in the forseeable future, I need to match speakers to my existing amp. Any suggestions? BTW, I'm interested in 2ch music only, not HT.

Thanks

HMF:

You have plenty of power. If you had 200 watts RMS/channel you could play the speakers only 3db louder, albeit with more ease. You may wish a better quality amp some day but that isa different issue.
