2 ch. vs 4 ch.

[hondarider 10+ year member]

I will be getting new components for the front and i can't decide if i should get a 2 channel amp or a 4 channel amp. I will only need 2 channels for awhile but later if i decide i want to amp some rear speakers i can use a 4 ch. amp without having to upgrade or i could bridge the 4 channel and have more power into 2 channels. So i would like to get a 4 channel but my budget is $175-200. Are there any decent 4 channel amps in that price range? Or should i just get a 2 channel?

I really like the Phoenix Gold xenon x100.4 but i don't think i can get that for under $200.

there's a lt980/2 over at sonicelectroix for 89.99. that puts you right at 200 for two. that's around 220x4@4ohms. well it's a little overrated but i have one and it's decent enough.
