Speaker / Amp matchup question

Hey guys, maybe you can help. I've bought a crown XTI4000. I want to buy 2 main cabinets for it. The amp gives me 1200W/chan at 4 ohms. I'm looking at getting the Yamaha S215V's, which are 1000W at continuous, and 2000w peak. Question I have, as I'm very newe to this, am I gonna be distorting too much because of a lack of headroom? Or do you guys think I'll be okay?

P.A. speaker set-up

Hello! I was wondering if I could get some advice on the best placement for P.A. speakers in a club that holds roughly 150 people. The 'stage' is set to the corner, facing the audience roughly at a 45 degree angle. I am using four berringer 300 watt P.A.'s driven by a phonic powerpod 1060. I actually have two of these, but for the size of the room I believed that would be over-kill.
