4-Channel or 2 2-Channel Amps??

I have my subs... my box should come in tomorrow that I ordered... and I am just waiting til Wednesday and I get paid. Then I go get an amp. Now decision time is here. What should I get... I want my Xplod 6x9's to sound better but I dont' really want bass out of those speakers. I put bass blockers on 'em but I dunno if that's gonna make me happy. I'm thinking of making plates to go in my sailpanels and getting some 6½'s in there. If I do that then should I get a 4 Channel Amp to power my Rockford Fosgate Punch 12's and the 6½'s or just get a 2 channel amp for the subs and another for the speakers? I thought about getting the 200.4 RF Amp. If not then I'm getting the 250.2. Anyone with any suggestions or does anyone have a good 2 or 4 channel amp they would like to sell or know where I can get one for under $200???

The 200.4 might be a little on the weak side for subs...unless you bridge it down to 2 channels.

Do you plan to do more stuff in the future, like amplifying everything? If so, you could buy the 200.4 now, bridge it for your subs...and later as your budget allows, buy a bigger sub amp and use the 200.4 for the four speakers.

If not, I think the 250.2 would probably be a better choice.
