It depends what power the driver will make use of and how close to the limit you are happy to work it. The plans will tell you what voltage limit if it's a recommended driver for the T30.

If you are cautious like most of us you'll only need an amp that can spit that much voltage and no more as you'll be limiting it. Might not be 350W worth.
