Good point -- I have to look up the power supply specs, and also the bias spec, for the A-51. I'd only be using four channels (annoying to leave one unused!) so I'd have more reserve. I'd also be driving the Neo-8's, which are incredibly efficient (and should never leave Class A) and the ribbon tweeter, which uses little power, so the A-51's power would really be overkill. But putting the little Passes on them would be expensive and run up my electric bill something fierce. :-)
Another thing to consider is that since I'd be tri-amping, I'd have the power supply budget of both amps.
Actually I'd really like six more channels since I want to experiment with splitting the woofers. But I guess I can perform those experiments before I do the Neo 8 mod, which isn't going to happen until I fix the delam anyway. One possibility would be A-21 for midbass, A-51 for low bass and tweeter, and tubes for the critical mids. Or the little Pass. But I figure I can cross that bridge when I come to it.
