Kenwood is the cheapest amp I'll recommend. Keep in mind that if your speakers say 175w, is that peak? short-term RMS? Long-term RMS? Also keep in mind that it is generally only the thermal limit. If you put any kind of bass through them then they will run out of excursion far before they run out of power. You will probably do well with the Eclipse XA2000 on Ebay. Only rated 100w RMSx2 at 4 ohms, it's still a great and efficient amp.
