^^my advice to you is to look in the classifieds you most likely gonna find a great good quality used amp in your budget that can work.Also since your using 2 different types of speakers i will recommend a 4channel.This will enable you to tune/eq/cross each seperate pair indipendantly to ensure maximum performance.

(reason is both brands may have different responses and peak freq which you will need to tune to get the response you require. so its not guaranteed that you will maximise use if you cut all of them and eq all of them with the same frequencies by using a 2channel.Also they are 8ohm speakers and so one pair bridges to give a 4ohm load so a 2channel will not be able to sufficiently power 4 speakers unless the amp is 2ohm stable bridged.)

for that budget you could get some nice quality stuff in the classifieds,check some of the power sellers,and seriously don't use those demon amps,waste of time,you could check fuzz for some nice stuff.

^^^dem demon amps have biog power ratings for small money and the amp performs like sheit. power acoustic and sheit is the same thing imo.

try your best and stay away from it,as well as boss,that thing name lil wonder 3 also,if you looking quality,don't invest in these brands....check the classifieds and you would get some nice stuff.

if you're looking at soundstream you cannot go wrong with the following series:
reference,rubicon,tarantula....

I'd start digging in the classifieds..

Sometimes stuff like this tends to pop up..

:mrgreen:

it's a 2CH of course, but you can basically get a RF punch amp that does 600Wrms+ that will fit into your budget, and sound a lot better than all the other amps mentioned..

Just keep your eyes open for a similar quality 4CH amp..
