cheap amp

I'm currently looking for a cheap amp for my door speakers. I don't care whether it's 2 channel or 4 channel. And the other thing is that I don't need much power. So the cheap the better, although I don't want an amp notorious for breaking.

Well if a cheap amp will kill my speakers, won't running them off a head unit kill them even more?

I've gotten some pm's trying to sell a used amp, but this is more for christmas so I don't think that will work.

Although that audio clinic store is looking pretty good right now, plus I'm helping the economy this way .

Check out crutchfield.com Lots of times, they have scratch & dent items that are much less than the "brand new" stuff.
I got a set of 5x7's that were scratch & dent, but for the life of me I couldn't see a scuff on them. Saved about $20 off new.
