Ignore the speaker rating. It doesn't mean anything. If you turn up your amp to max volume and then play something with really loud peaks, you might hurt them. That's about it. Wattage on speaker ratings is just a caution, not a rating of what kind of amp you should have.

I'm guessing that a 220 watt total receiver is probably 44 watts per channel if it's a 5 channel receiver. In this case, you may want to upgrade. If it's a 2 channel receiver, 110 watts is cool. Of course, receiver manufacturers regularly inflate their wattage ratings...
