I have a set of Alpine SPR-174A 6.5" coaxials in my front doors and I ran the extra wire that is connected to the crossover through my doors so im not using stock wiring anymore. I plan to buy another set of these coaxials for the rear as well but I think I should get an amp.

These speakers are rated at 40w RMS and 160w Peak Power. I need a 4 channel amp but i'm not sure what amp to get and I don't know how much I need to drive these speakers well, how many watts for each speaker should I be looking for?

40 watts rms per ch. 94
