Default Help me pick a new amplifier

Now that my crossfire is starting to die, I have to decide on a new amplifier. I only need a two channel amplifier since I only have one set of componets to run. I have it narrowed down to these choices: From Least expensive to Most expensive, by brandname:

Phoenix Gold Tantrum series, 2 channel 250watt, 109.00
http://69.93.14.227/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=457

Phoenix gold Tantrum series, 4 channel 600 watt, 289.99
http://69.93.14.227/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=461

Phoenix Gold Titanium series, 2 channel 400 watt, 309.99
http://69.93.14.227/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=464

Phoenix Gold Titanium series, 4 channel 500 watt, 349.99
http://69.93.14.227/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=465

Alpine MRV, 2 channel 600 watt, 259.99
http://69.93.14.227/index.cfm?fuseac...&Product_ID=72

Crossfire VR series, 2 channel 400 watt, 189.99
http://69.93.14.227/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=175

Crossfire BMF series 2 channel 240 watt, 209.99
http://69.93.14.227/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=161


Now I put a few four channels in here because they were on sale and decently priced, and I could run my JL door tweets independantly from my Alpine kick tweets.

I am leaning toward the Titanium 2 channel 400 watt.

JL 300/2 or 300/4? the 300/4 bridged sounded DAMNED good - imo better than the zapco comp stuff I used to run, and darned close to the quality of my Audison ZRx 2.250 - which btw is one hell of an amp if you don't mind it being a bit spendy.

solidsnake, hes looking for a two channel amp, mrd-m605 is mono. But thats a good price.
I think i paid 300 for mine in a packaged deal.

Tackett, me i always loved alpines equipment, i never had any issues with any of my stuff. I just upgraded my system to the V12 MRD-M605, MRV-F345, with 10" Type-R and it is clean and tight.
