Unknown. You didn't provide any technical specs for any of the devices. What is the impedance of each speaker? What is the minimum impedance of the amp? Do you have sufficient DC power to drive the amp?

For a speaker the listed wattage is the maximum. Less is OK. For an amplifier the listed wattage is the maximum at some impedance load. You can't exceed the amp rating without damage. You can go much lower than the max on a speaker and still have it work fine.
