Hi Daniel,

Welcome. Of the many home amps that have crossed our path here, the 
Bryston is among the very few that could probably do some justice to 
e-drum signals without immediate exhaustion, but, as you say, why 
risk speakers and quality if you don't have to?  A keyboard amp would 
be far better than a guitar amp. Boomer's been recommending his 
Peavey.  The Rolands are popular, too. The bigger the better.
