Default need help choosing 4 channel amp

ok didnt like the sound of my 6 1/2 rockford componnets and my alpine 6x9's so I took them all out of the car and replaced them with two sets of infinity reference 605cs's....I figured the extra set of 6 1/2's in the rear would give me really nice sound....
I want to pick up a 4 channel amp to power these...figure something that is at least 70 watts times 4....I dont want to spend a ton of money....what do you all suggest?!?!!?

I bought a Pioneer GM-X564 for about $160. One of the best amps for the price when I bought it about 4-5 months ago. RMS power: 50w x 4 channels @ 4 ohms. I'm happy with it connected to my Alpine HU and Polk 6.5".

Give me how much you want to spend, and I'll make recommendations. Prices vary GREATLY.

thats max power, not rms. RMS on a hu is 12-18 max. I personally have a 500x Fosgate (only cause I work at best buy and get da mad playa discountz), 349$ retail 72.5 x4 rms, 250 x 4 watt max. I'm pretty happy with it overall produces very clean mids/highs.
