Default Amp Recommendation?

I don't know much of anything about audio equipment but went with Diamond Audio D661s components as I heard good things on here. Now if I was on a budget, what would be a good amp to power them?

I heard on the Z, you don't really need the rears so a 2 channel amp would work best right? Also I have no clue about wiring, do I need 4 gauges or 6, 8? Any good place to just buy a set for the amp and components?

Really depends on how much you want to spend. Quality or a cheap solution?

Well for the amp, like 100-200 at the most. Don't care about brand but at least quality stuff that won't **** on me in a month or so. Anything on the wiring?

My budget is around 700-800 but that's including a shop to install them for me as I have no idea what to do and no place to do it.

For the money, I would get this:

And unless you see your self adding a sub and another amp down the road, this wiring kit should be plenty....

i'm in the same boat, but i'd prefer to be limited to circuit city/best buy (i know not the highest quality) but i have a card there with a pretty high limit.

is there anything decent at those stores or are they all garbage?
