Being a musician actual;ly lets you buy less costly rigs because the music is already in yoiur brain and the external cues seem to set off what it should sound like in most cases. That said, you should consider a separate perhaps integrated amp. Go and see what is available from your local dealer and understand that amps cost as much or more than a TV.

the totems are releaving. you might feel the need to upgrade electronics soon. An integrated amp is a good suggestion. Maybe NAD or Cambridge.

Totems are nice speakers, no doubt. But I believe they require a bit of power to sound their best. As Tbromgard suggested, a NAD integrated (with 80W) would go well with these speakers.
I suggest that you try more sensitive speakers like the Tekton M-Lore that will probably sound great with your existing amp. Also they cost much less than the Rainmakers.
I second Mechans on his opinion about you being a musician and the audio equipment you need.

I have had success with all the amps I've thrown at them. I started with the Dared DV-6C, which is tube preamp stage feeding class-d amp stage. 65 watts at 4 ohm, bi-amped. More than enough power, and sounded wonderful.

Next I powered them with the new Pioneer SC-68 receiver. This offered about 225 watts at 4 ohm. Wonderful sound.

Now I use a Harman Kardon HK990 integrated amp, which is 300 watts at 4 ohm. This is an amazing integrated, so it sounds lovely.

Remember, they are rated at 100 watts max I think. Find a good amp that is stable at 4 ohms and enjoy man.
