200 will work. Don't let me discourage you. But for those speakers to shine they need more power. You'll hear them on the highway at 70 with more power.
Let me run this hair brain idea past you guys. I have three amps. Stinger 700.4, B52 and NVX VAD2M. This idea is working off the premise of more power to the bag 8s. Set up now, I have the B52 putting 200watts to each 8. The NVX putting 160 to each sv165 lowers. The stinger has channels 1 and 2 putting about 100 watts to each of 2 Mmats 6.5s, and channels 3 and 4 bridged at 4 ohms to the horns, turned way down.
Now, in theory, I could bridge the stinger two two channels and push 350 to each 8. I could run the B52 with one channel parallel to one side Mmat/sv165. That would give 125 to each of the 4 6.5s. Then run the NVX on two channels, one for each of the 8 ohm horns, which would be about 80 watts each.

Tell me why I shouldn't do this...
Wonder what the VADM2 dynamic test results delivered?
Lots of options with what u have but may not be end game ideal, so get it cranking for now and carefully build upon what u have.
CV to SVs. 200 watts
NVX to bag lids 250 watts ( I think it dynoed at 300).
Stinger 1/2 to Mmats
Stinger 3 to fairing horns in parallel
Stinger 4 to bag lid horns in parallel.
U can swap the SV & Lids around based on how they pair up based on ur ears.

Seems like a pretty good plan. Those 200L will love 350.

Where do you have your amps mounted?
If you parallel your 6.5 I would tie the fairing on one channel, lowers on the other. That way you can tune them separate

I ask about the DSP Because if you wire the Faring and lowers together on the same channel it will be difficult to tune the Faring separate from the lowers. Maybe as a test try what you are talking about only use the left channel and wire the Faring bridge to the left channel and the lowers bridge to the right channel so that you can still been passed them correctly.

I just added a DSR 1. That's what started all of this. The NVX dyno'd at about 190 at 4 ohms and 270 at 2 ohms.
I'm trying to think through this. Parallel the lowers on one channel (2ohms 125watts each). Parallel the Mmats on one channel (2 ohms 125 each). Bridge the Stinger to the rears @350 each. Parallel one channel of the NVX to front horns and one channel to back horns (that's 80 watts per horn @4ohms).
Is that front stage strong enough? 660 watts up front. As it sits right now, including the NVX I ran to the lowers, it sits at about 720 up front.
I guess it makes up by taking the rears from 560 to 860.
Lose 60 in the front to pick up 300 in the back.
