Multi-channel amp suggestions?

I own a Pro5, posted this at Protegeclub.com, and didn't get the number of responses I had hoped for. So I'm going to try it here:

I'm just not happy enough with a new deck, speakers and a sub, and I'm gonna be trashing most of it soon.

I'm looking for a good multi-channel amp to run speakers and the sub. The plan is to install a set of 6x9s (still investigating the exact location in the P5, but it WILL be done).

I will then run the 6x9s and the front door speakers from the amp, and use deck power for the rear door speakers (who cares about the passengers, right? ) and the tweeters up front (they've got inline capacitor-type "crossovers")

I think the most economical route for me to go would be to get a 5-channel amp, and run the speakers mentioned and the sub from the same unit.

I've got a Kenwood 3003 12" sub in a small sealed box, and I want to keep that. I think it will sound great with "clean" power (I'm still looking to "rock" and not really "thump" ), and hatchback space is an issue.

What can I get for this application that will deliver solid, CLEAN watts? Of course, price is always an issue, too, so maybe something in the $500 range? SQ is more important to me than SPL, but I do need to crank it up sometimes.

C'mon now - I'm looking for opinions!

I think your best bet is to get a four channel amp and then a amono amp for your sub. But if you get a 5 channel amp I would recommend the old soundstream 405...you can get them off ebay. Real clean amps, Real clean.....So thats what I would do if I were you. Hit me on the email and I will send you some pics of my MP3 system im building. Bye now

Well, I've also had a suggestion to try a Rockford Fosgate - think it was a 500.5 -

Any opinions on RockFos?

The best bet would probably be to use a four channel amp for the mids and highs and use a mono amp for the sub like was previously mentioned. personaly i like DEI's amps i use a 500 series four channel briged to power 1 JL 10w3 and it's clean, it was powering four mb compent sets in my jeep clear as a bell. price is good too at about 300 bucks for the 500 on the low end and around 750 for the 1100d which is the top of the line digital.

I have a Rockford-Fosgate 600.4. I love it. have it going to the door speakers and 2 channels bridged to my solo-baric.

Xtant X604. 100 x 4 + 400x1, these are the real rms values not spec. You'll probably kill your speakers and wallet though. $999 retail.
