What amp to use with my Components?

I have 2008 models of 6.5 and 6x9 Memphis MS class speakers I just purchased this past week. I've heard good things about these so I decided to pick some up and try them out.
Here's where I need the help. I have three amps I own to run them but I'm not sure which one to go with

I have a JL 300/4, An Alpine MRP-F240, and a Pioneer Premier 6100-F, all three amp's are great, just having a hard time deciding on which one to use.

Thanks Andrew

I was thinking JL myself, but I dont want to over power these speakers and risk blowing them, they were fairly pricey

This JL is not that powerful, no worries.

Use the JL. Set the gains right and you shouldn't have a problem.

Plus you should have the great warranty from Memphis even if the worst happens......
