Will the MacIntosh Mc275 have enough power to drive my Summits? thanks

Depends on what you listen to and how loud you like to play it. It will have enough power to drive the Summits, but you will likely experience a roll-off in the highs due to its inability to handle the really low impedance at the higher frequencies. Also, you will probably experience some compression on complex pieces or if you turn the volume up.

Rich: thank you, I kind of figured that was the case.

You really need to use them monoblocked to gain the dynamic but relaxed headroom. I in the past went from a single one to 2x275s and it is a major difference.
