Default 4ch amp recommendations

Looking for a 4ch amp to power 4-6.5" probably entry level Focal's. I've been out of car audio for nearly 20 years and it seems like the brands that were only high end back then are now producing some cheap crap in addition to the high end lines. I like the JL XD400 but $280-$300 is a little more than I want to spend.

I looked at the 4050 audiopipe for my harley fairing installation, but it just seems too good to be true quality 4x50 compact amp for $90

I'm still interested in the Audiopipe 4050 for my Harley, does anyone have any experience with it? It will be powering a pair of Focal 165CA1 2way 6.5's and I will probably add 4" speakers or another pair of 6.5's later

X2 on the Sundown.
And I'm a HUGE fan of Zapco, ever since I got my first.
