amp quality, Im such a nu b Options

I normally would post this on an pure audio forum but i trust this forum most and i dont belong to any pure car audio forums. So ill just ask my question here.

I know theres a good amount of companies out there who make amps. Other then the name brand ones which ones are good?

Ive been debating between a name brand one (kicker or pioneer) and a amp from "Profile." Ive read some reviews on their amps and have found ppl to like their amps, mostly their Califorina series amp.

Im planing on getting either a 4 or 2 channel. Ill be amping two subs and two rmb8 mid bass speakers. At first i was just going to amp my subs but figured that since im guna be amping things i might as well get a 4 chan and amp both my subs and my mid bass. Although my mid bass sound fine on the stock set up.

And just so i know it is better to have a chanel for each speaker or sub instead of runing two speakers/subs off of one chanlle right?

Thanks

btw this is the profile amp im looking at if i get a 4 chan.

(spec taken from kicker.com)

I i hear you right id be looking for a 2 chan amp (one chan per sub) that can put out no more then 125 rms @ 4 ohm and peaks no higher then 250w @ 4 ohm.

??? Or could this sub run on a 1 ohm amp. No right?

And if it were a choice between power acostik, profile, and hifonics which one would be better?

i have found this amp for around 50 bucks. worth it?

or this power acostik for about 75 bucks.
Im leaning toward this one.

http://www.cardomain.com/item/POWLT9802
this power acoustik amp is around 100 bucks.

Why are there no peak rms ratings for the power acostik amp?
