Default what amp for interior speakers/ watts per channel how many channel

I currently have 6.5's that are rated at 65 w rms each sens 91db
6x9's that are rated at 100 w rms each sens 92 db
im looking for a 4 channel amp that i can connect these interior speakers to but i m afraid im gonna get one to powerful and blow them or too underpowered and not get the right sound. what kind of wpc (watts per channel) should i look for??. do i go 2 channel and bridge them or better 4 channel and just use parallel wiring???

Dont bridge them. Get a 4 channel and wire them directly to each channel.

Search on how to set the gains. Youll be ok.

Well, that 65w a channel is pretty conservative. But yea, dont just turn up the gain. Just turn and set it properly and you should be fine.
