4 channel amps

[eviling 10+ year member]

I'm looking at these 2 amps right now, I believe they fit me quite well but i'm not sure, i've heard the excelon kenwoods are decent, i have kenwood on my sub it does alright but i want something really nice for my speakers, which i also plan on replacing, these are the 2 amp's i'm looking at right now.

Kenwood eXcelon XR-4S

Kenwood XR-4S (xr4s) - 4-Channel Amplifiers - Sonic Electronix

and the Infinity KAPPA FOUR

Infinity KAPPA-FOUR (kappafour) - 4-Channel Amplifiers - Sonic Electronix

they're about the same specs. 150 at 2 ohms, 120sh at 4 ohms rms.

for speakers I wasn't sure, there aren't many 2 ohm speakers, the infinity's are the ones im most familuar with, and they're great price but I'm not sure about how well they;'ll handle 150 watts rms, they're rated up to 300 peak and 90 rms.

Infinity 60.9cs (609cs) - 6-1/2" Component Systems - Sonic Electronix

let me know if anybody has any thoughts on this.

hmm little priceyer than i the ones i was looking at :-\ what are the differences? i mean its 160 rms, but really what else is am i gaining over the infiniti.. I plan on buying those amps somwhere else, sonic has good spec listings, thats the only reason i listed them, i found them both for around 250$

and what about the speakers? I was thinking of 2 sets of 2 way comonates, I always thought that would sound better than 2 way speakers in the rare :\ how are those kappa's? and how are are they going to handle these amps? are we talking a drastic life span drop. what other 2 ohm speakers could you guys recommend
