I plan on mounting a tv to the wall, having the audio out go to a 2.0 or 2.1 amplifier and then out to two 8 inch in wall speakers. Ideally I would like to mount the equipment behind the TV on the wall.
I want this for good sound for TV watching / music and loud enough to fill a large (about 25 x 15) room without doors for my wife's dance parties. Also I would like to do it reasonably priced, roughly $200 for speakers and amp and power.
I will be buying the Monoprice 8-inch high powered in-wall speakers:

I am a little OCD and need some practical advice instead of my overkill theories about what is needed.
Ideally, I would like to get this 2.1 amplifier with this included power adapter:
http://www.sureelectronics.net/goods.php?id=2600
It is a Class D TDA7498 amp with a 24v 5a 120w power adapter. If this is sufficient to fill this room with these speakers and send an adequate signal to a powered amp, I would love to call it done.
HOWEVER, my overkill OCD read some review on the 7498 that it responds well to a larger power supply so I would want to get a Meanwell 200w 24v/8.3a Switched-Mode Power Supply
http://www.sureelectronics.net/goods.php?id=2601
or buy the amp alone and buy this Genssi 36v/350w SMPS
http://www.amazon.com/Genssi-Regulated-Switching-Power-Supply/dp/B005CLCJA6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1395644448&sr=8-1&keywords=genssi+350w+36v
Now this raises the whole "am I going to kill myself because electricity" question. Someone suggested I need to enclose the SMPS in something else because mains power supply requires it. Now that opens a whole can of worms. I am willing to go down that road if it makes a really big difference.
I have also heard great things about this Class T amp - the Dayton Audio DTA-120:

Should I just get something like that instead? It only has a 120w power supply as well.
Or should I find a good price on a full blown receiver? Like this one

HELP! My research and lack of knowledge/experience has completely overwhelmed me!
tl;dr
Will this amp with 120w power adapter fill a large (25'x15') room with sound and sound good with the Monoprice 8" in-wall speakers?
