Those are really good speakers for the price and your amp will power them nicely.

Yes, ideally a more powerful amp would be better but you need to consider where you are going to use this system. In your home it is doubtful that you will ever utilize the full capability of the 600 watt amp.

These are rated at 250 watts.

They will work the 250 watts is not peak but continuous.
You won't blow them.
The peak power of the amp is 400 watts less than peak power of the speakers.

I just mentioned it because you were talking about 300/350 watt speakers before.
