Amplifier suggestions anyone?

Looking for a small amp to power a pair of 6.5"s and a single ten.

The 10 would be happiest with about 350wrms and the speakers would probably be good with anywhere from 50-100wrms.

This is a super budget system, so i'm looking to get the something of decent quality, but i'm also trying to keep the cost down.

I was originally thinking a 4ch and then bridging a channel, but to tell you the truth i've never done that so i'm not sure what to look for.

Any suggestions on what would work?

single 4 ohm sub and 4 ohm speakers.

I'm not 100% for sure on this as I've never personally done it. But I believe when you run a 4 channel, and bridge two of the channels, you'd need an 8ohm subwoofer on it. I could be wrong, so I appologize if I am. I might be thinking a 2 channel amp, and bridging it for 3 channel output.

interesting... i could see why you would, but i've got no actual experience with this.

Basically i'm looking for the best way to power a pair of speakers and one sub. (preferably in one amp, but i'm not sure if its possible)

4 channel would work.

most 2 and 4 channels make thier bridged power at 4 ohms.

Thanks for the suggestion on the amps. Originally i was thinking something along the lines of a hifonics.

Is it possible to bridge 2channels of any 4ch amp, or are only some able to do so?
