Default Need Amp Suggestions

Hi, so I'm a noob to car stereo and what not. I'm currently running a Pioneer deck and CDT CL-61Neo components, I was wondering which amp I should get to power the speakers?

What Speakers do you plan on running and do you plan on adding a sub in the future? Need a little more info so that everyone can chime in.

What's your current set up? do you have high end speakers? additional rear speakers in the roll hoops? the more details the better the suggestions. We can't tell you to get a 2ch when you really need a 4ch or 200w amp when your speakers require 400w (just an arbitrary example).

If you know the model of the speakers I'm sure I can dig up the specks for you.

What is your budget?
It can be like a disease. I started out with just a head unit and door speakers and a crappy Alpine amp. Then it started...
Now this is my trunk:

CDT CL-61
* 6.5" 2-Way
* Mid: Stamped 6.5"
* Crossover: "Phase Perfect" Elliptic 4th order 2-Way SatNat-456
* Tweeter: TW-20 silk soft dome or titanium dome
* Power Handling: 90 wattsRMS
* Frequency Response: 60-20kHz
* Sensitivity: 92.0 dB
* Impedance: 4Ohm
* Surface & Flush mount tweeter


Here's a few suggestions that will fit the bill.

if you want something that will fully power them then you might need to figure out how much you're willing to spend or how much space you're willing to give up.

What kind of amp is this? I am looking for one amp that can drive a jl 10w3v3 and a set of front components (have yet to be determined).
