GOOD amp to push Boston RM9 6x9s and Pro 6.5 components???

Hey all, my project is coming together slowly but surely thanks to all of your help. So far I've got a set of Boston Pro series 6.5 components for the front and two Boston RM9 series 6x9s for the rear. I'm thinking about an amp to push all of them and need some help. Sound quality is very important to me but price is too. Any suggestions? Also, comments about my chosen setup would be helpful too...

Thanks

id recomend a jl 300x4 amp, it's a nice amp with a lot of tuning features a little pricey but well worth the money

sorry about the warp but how difficult was it to fit the Boston 6.5's in the front?

What's the nominal power rating of the speakers? How much do you want to spend?

Hey everyone, thanks for all the replies. Here are the specs on my speakers:
Boston Pro series 6.5 components:
Nominal Size 6-1/2"
Recommended Amplifier Power 20-400 watts
Nominal Impedance 3 ohm
Frequency Response (3dB in car) 50-22,000Hz
Mounting Cutout Diameter 5" (127mm)
Mounting Depth 2-3/8" (60mm)
Mounting Depth with Spacer 2-1/16" (52mm)
System Type 2-way

Boston RM9 6x9s
Nominal Size 6 x 9 inch
Recommended Amplifier Power 12 - 220 watts
Nominal Impedance 4 ohm
Frequency Response (3dB in car) 35 - 20k Hz
Mounting Cutout Diameter 8 11/16 x 6" (221 x 152mm)
Mounting Depth 3" (76mm)
Mounting Depth with Spacer 3 5/8" (92mm)
System Type 2-way

RedLude2K, hey no problem at all man, I only wish I could tell you. I'm getting it professionally installed, but from the way they made it sound, it didn't really sound like a big deal, they have to make a bracket and spacer or something (once again, I'm sorry for the resounding ignorance, I know nothing about car stereo, hence all the questions).
As far as how much I want to spend... I'm not really sure but I'd hope it wasn't more than $300-$400. But I'm the kind of guy that will pay extra to keep from being pissed or dissatisfied later on down the road, so just tell me how it is...
Thanks for all the help by the way, everyone.
