Any good quality 4 channel amp will be fine - Arc Audio, JL, PPI, Zapco, Xtant, Alpine, and many many others. Depends on what your wallet can stand.

Default Alpine is a possibility

I was actually thinking about the alpine mrv-540. Is the 50 watts rms power enough for the components??

You should have 80 RMS X 4 at 4 ohms, which I think is enough for the PCE213, because they max out at 100 watts anyway...The same for the PCE-216...they max out at 130 watts.

Thumbs up

Get the Zapco C2K4.0X 4channels x 100 competition series . It is a little expensive, but the quality is worth the money. Josey

Default zapco

The zapco would be great but the price is a bit hi. What do you guys think about MB amps or an older precision power amp? I currently have an mrd-m1000 for my sub so another alpine would look nice with my set up.
