AQ all day. If you don't already have the DCON, get a single 4 and then just bridge a small 2 channel for the power @ 4 ohms

but what if the aq750 is a little over my budget, its at $213 with tax and all @ audioque.com.

is there something very similar to aq750 @ a cheaper price?

Save up and get the AQ, it's a world of better quality. And yea, the AP does 640 @ 4 ohms bridged to mono.

While the AP's do rated power, the end to be very inefficient. And the AQ's tend to do more than rated, and rather efficiently. Might also want to look into an eD NINe.2x if you don't mind buying used.

Also consider these, a bit cheaper than the AQ.

I agree look into the soundstream rubicon series those are good amps, also look into MB Quart Onyx or Discus series amps.

MA Audio makes some decent budget amps too. I wouldn't consider AQ to be a budget amp but yeah they are definately good amps. pricey though for a college student on a budget...might be something you have to find a good deal on used.
