You have xlr outputs on your preamp so the crown is perfect for you. Double check the voltage output but the biggest issue in using pro amps is the pre outs not being able to properly drive the amp. Xlr has more output so you should be good to go.
Upgrade your amp and be done with it. You will really want to feed those speakers lots of power, they are very hungry. If you want to get creative and save a lot of dough go with a pro amp, crown xls-2000 is about $450 and will crank out more power than anything even close to that price. I...

Also i...
what do you mean by current, and also why would my receiver sound like its pumping razor blades. Excuse me if i sound like a novice, any advice will really help
please explain.
Also these speakers will be in a small room for now, so will it make much of a difference. When i move them into a larger room(soon i hope) i will probably get a seperate amp
