Enough power vs too much power

[spl84]

I know this is an age old discussion but I've always kind of gotten conflicting responses on this. I've almost decided on an amp to power my speakers. I think my speakers have a max power handling of 300 watts. I am wanting to power them with a Hegel H190 which apparently has a peak power of 500 watts per channel. The rms power output rating of the amp is 150w x 2 @ 8ohm. Could this "peak power" rating damage my speakers? I'm all about having enough power but only if the amp will not harm my speakers. Anyone have any real world insight into this? Thanks

Your ears will be damaged long before your hi-fi. Don't worry about it.
