Default Speaker, Amp and Receiver Question

I have a KEF 5.0 system with a Martin Logan Dynamo sub (see my sig) along with an Onkyo 674 and I am wanting to potentially pick up an amplifier from Emotiva as it is a good value for the money and well-rated. My question which is barely addressed by the KEF website is how much power from an amplifier would be too much?

I realize that before I can even get an amp, I'll have to replace my receiver because the 674 does not have pre-outs. I'll likely upgrade to the Onkyo 706, but I will entertain the Yamaha RX-V663 or maybe something from Denon.

The three front speakers have power ratings from 15-150W. So is it dangerous to throw 200W at them? I was looking at the XPA-3 http://emotiva.com/xpa3.shtm. The other issue is if that is dangerous then the UPA-7 is out too because my rears can only handle 100W and the 125W through 7 channels would be too much for them. Please Help!
