Amplifying power using the TPA3116

Correct, regarding the voltage. The TPA3116 will be damaged if powered above 26V. The only way to use that part with higher voltages would be to use a DC-DC converter to bring the voltage down to 26V or less.

For instance, the DC-DC converter below can take a voltage between 9V and 53V and output a voltage between 5V and 28V, set by an external resistor.
