  1. i would go for the new version of the rockford fasegate 4 channel you can run your subs on one channel and 6/9 on the other they make great amps and are always more powerful then what they say and not to pricy


  2. Disregard Kevins answer. You cannot power 4 speakers and 2 subs with a 4 channel amp.  If he could add, he would realize that to power 4 speakers and 2 amps would require at least a 5 channel amp, and even then your subs would most likely be way underpowered.

    What you need is a quality 4 channel amp for the speakers and a quality mono (1 channel) amp for the subs.  I cant tell you anything more about the 4 channel you would need because you didnt provide any numbers for the speakers.  For the subs, try to find a mono amp that is 500 rms x1 @ 2 ohms, (since your gonna want to wire the MTX's in parrallel to give the amp a 2 Ohm load). The Alpine MRP-M500 and the Kenwood KAC-8104D are probably your best options

  3. check out these sites for amps:
