75watts is not nearly enough power to damage ES's. I would try bridging it and seeing how it sounds with just the ES.

Which amp is it? The KX series really mulitply fast when you bridge them so BE CAREFUL. The KX600.4 is 75x4 or 300x2. 300x2 is too much for Eurosports, but 150-200 would be perfect.

to little wattage can't hurt a speaker... they just won't get a loud as they could.

I wouldn't bridge them, 300 is a little to much plus they'd be mono...

No... Idont understand why this myth exists... If you think about it... every time you turned your speakers down, theyd blow up.
