Matrix GT1600FX too much power for an Ampeg 810e?

With great power comes great responsibility.

I'm looking at building a rig based around the Helix Rack. My main cab is an Ampeg 810e. I'm looking at poweramps and the one that jumps onto my radar is the Matrix GT1600FX.

That amp hits 800 watts per channel* at 4ohms, no indication of peak.

The 810e handles 800 rms and 1600 peak.

So the question is, would this be the preferable amp to efficiently power that cab? Is this bumping into the top end of tolerances or are these nominal operational specs?

On the surface, it appears as those this amp and cab go together like Jenny and Forest, Peas and Carrots.

*a stereo amp, I could add a second 810 if I so desired (not likely but it's nice to know I have the option).

From the Matrix page on the GT1600FX:

Yup. All over it (Dual mono mode).

I figure Volume can be handled accordingly but if I do want to Boise to hear me I have that option. It’s a solid state amp and there’s a knob for volume as well as on the Helix.

I have my SVT but it’s a lot of maintenance.
