Default amp suggestions?

I'm going to buy an amp in the next day or so to power my mb quart components. My friend is suggesting i buy this amp, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...738589573&rd=1
I'm looking for something in the 50-60w rms range and similarly priced to this amp. Any suggestions on what i should go with outside of this one?

I wouldn't. I am using a 50x4 Alpine to power Diamond Audio 600s plus two rear speakers, and it is defintely NOT enough power to run these speakers properly. Sounds good at low volumes, but distorts when I try to push it hard. I would suggest spending the $$ on a 2-channel (>=100W per chnl) and a mono amp. For what it's worth I am very happy with my Alpine mono amp for the sub.

Eclipse amps and Kicker amps are both excellent quality.

Spend a little more and get a better 4-channel amp. Try a JL Audio 300/4 or one of the Memphis amps. You won't be sorry you spent the extra $100-$150.

i just realized that its a 5 channel amp and not a 4 channel. I changed my mind on getting a 4 channel anyways right now, im going to spend the money on an idmax sub and a nice mono amp to go with it. I'll do the 4 channel for the mids in jan or feb when i have some money saved up again. Thanks for the suggestions though.
