Difficult amp selection

[ENDER_XVICM 10+ year member]

I need an amp that can power Alpines SPS-600 and SPS 600C.

I can get the PDX 100.4 for 250. I might be able to get a PDX 150.4 for 200+ a Cadence TXA-3004. The last option is a Kicker ZX 650.4 on ebay for about 200.

I want an amp that is at least 75wx4. Clearly all of these will do that. They will all leave some headroom as well which I like and being 4Ch amps they are very versatile for use in the future with different setups.

I guess the question comes down to what do you all recomend of those choices. I like the headroom on all of them. but when I weigh in prices the kicker comes out on top for me. any other opinions?

Are kickers ZX series amps any good? or should I stick with the alpines?

true but similar to the SAX 100.4 isnt one of the 3 i mentioned and weighs in around 400 bucks.

Arc audio ks 300.4. $258.70 at audiophileliquidators.com plus shipping. It would blow away the alpine and the kicker.700 watts of power would be more than enough plus give u all the head room u needed for future expansion.
