Help me choose an amp

[moosefist]

I just bought some new speakers for my car //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif I got some Alpine SPX-13REF 5.25" , and SPX-17REF. Here is what i bought:

Now I am trying to decide on an amp to power these things. I have about $250 left in my budget and there are a couple of models from alpine i am considering:

Alpine MRP-F250

Alpine MRP-F300

Alpine MRP-F450

Alpine MRP-F550

I don't want to over power the speakers, and in the end sound quality is better than loudness. I also do have 100'sq ft of fat mat to deaden the doors, floors, trunk and hood.

Any help is appreciated, I am not dead set on an alpine amp either. I just found those because of the speakers. Thanks.

Did you ever decide on an amp?

I just purchased these same speakers and I was thinking of getting the Alpine MRP-F300 or the Alpine MRP-F600. I know the speakers are rated at 60 watts RMS but I was told they could handle 100 watts RMS if they were tuned correctly.
