suggestion for amp to suite my needs

I am looking for an amp that can provide at least 80-90RMS X 2 for front and at least 50-60RMS X 2 for rears and 150RMS for sub.
I would go for the jl500/5 but it only gives 25X2 for rears.
My setup is infinity ref comp which has 90RMS for fronts,
infinity ref coaxials which has 60RMS for rear and
kicker c10 sub with 150RMS .
Looking for one sub that can accomodate all these. i don't want to put two amps in my car. I have searched all over the internet but can't find anything that will accomodate this set-up. Can someone please recommend something.
Let me know if anyone has anything or any suggestions.
Thanks

Get multiple amps.
If you are looking for different rms ratings for your front and rears, you are best off to buy 2 different amps.

That JL amp will work for 2/3 of your system.

Running it bridged (150 x 3) will give you good power for your fronts and your sub, but your rears will not be powered.

If you run the fronts and rears on that amp they will each get 45wrms, which is not enough for your fronts (the 90 wrms is at 2 ohms, and your front speakers can't be wired for that) but you can then bridge 5 & 6 for 150 WRMS.

Or you can bridge for of the channels 150 x 2 and leave 2 unbrigded 45 x 2, but then your sub gets no power.

If you want all of your speakers to get their recommended power get 3 separate amps.

There's a guy selling a kicker zx 700.5 in the fs forum.

The amp will do 70x4 @ 4ohms or 85x4 @ 2ohms + 210 @ 4ohms or 420 @ 2ohms.

Turn the gains up on the fronts, down on the rears and you have your power needs. All in one amp. And for an excellent price.
