Choosing which amp to buy

[crunch5868 10+ year member]

I have 2 alpine type-r's 100wattrms 300w max in the front doors and 2 cheap 100w rms audiobahns in the back doors. The type-r's need a lot of power i am told (they are on the way) so i am looking at Alpine, Kicker, or Lanzar amps. I want a 4-channel that can put out atleast 100w rms to 4 channels at 4 ohms. Im looking to spend between $200 and 300, but im assuming it will be around 300. Any suggestions or experiences or anything that can help? thanks

might as well scratch those audiobahns and look for an amp around 100-110W @4ohm/channel. some people (like me) dont even have rear fill, let alone audiobahns...

Don't bother with rear fill. If you really prefer it I would can the audiobahns. I would just look for an amp that puts out 100-150X2 at 4ohms.

Ive came down to the Alpine PDX 4.100 which is 4x100watts for $291 or the Kicker 06ZX850.4 which is 4x175watts for $265. i havent looked too deeply but these are right in my price range (im only 17) and its my first audio system so im not going over board. the audiobahns were $35 for a pair and i would only use them until i got some subs for the back then ill go to just the fronts and subs.
