Default Overkill or NOT......i have a RXV1800 and want an Emotiva XPA-5

I have polk inwalls that that handle 100 watts.

My yamaha receiver supposedly does 130/channel.

my home setup currently is now down to 5.1 instead of 7.1.
i was thinking about getting an XPA-5...well cuz i want one.
my yamaha 1800 currently drives all my speakers. i have no
idea what it actually drives 5 speakers at if it says its drives
7 with 130. i've been wanting to get an emotiva XPA-5 and
have that drive my 5 speakers and when i go back to 7.1
i will will have my receiver drive the rear 2. and maybe over
time get the emotiva XPA-2 then to power the rears if i feel
its falling short.

question is...if i put this emotiva XPA-5 to my polk inwalls...
is it too much for the speakers? will i notice a difference
in my sound if i go from my yamaha to the emotiva?
