I bought the following speakers:

Diamond Audio S500s components
150 watt RMS 4 ohm (each)

And these subs:

RE Audio RE8
175 Watt RMS 4 ohm (each, running 2 total).

So, I would want a 4 channel amp putting out about 150 watts per channel and that should be about perfect to run everything? How far can I deviate from the 150 watts per channel (assuming I can't find a 150 x 4 amp I like).

Just want to check before laying out the cash.

Thanks!

I'd really like to stay between $200 to $250 (online prices), if that's possible.
