i think focals run at 6ohm mate!! so id get a 100 watts rms x 2 @4ohm amp. then when u run the comps of this u will probably be putting around 75 watts rms into them!! dont hold me to this though but im pretty sure im correct!! nice speakers u got there though mate!!

i'm selling a soundstream usa.204 at the moment for a mate.
it's very good quality, and 4x40wrms @ 4ohms, so should be about right for your components, plus you'll have an extra 2channels to add more speakers or a sub to later.
do a search for the product code and see what you think.

stick to one set of comps mate, it will be hard to set up 2 to get a good sound stage! id go for the dls-ca21 amp its 2 x 100watts rms at 4ohm so that should be ok for your speakers plus this is an amazing amp! trust me! it is £219.99 from www.caraudiodirect.co.uk
