For most speaker amps, it is hard to know how they will react to a 120 ohm load. In my expereince, an amp that can put >10 W into 8 ohms can drive K1000, volume-wise. Even if the amp is 160 W, it is only 12 dB louder. So it looks like to me any amp less than 200 W is fine, as long as the volume knob is its reasonable working range.
For headphone amps to drive K1000, it better be capable of delivering 1W into 120 ohms. The most powerful headphone amps I have seen can deliver 1-2 W.
