Default amp choice

I am putting a sound system in my car and need a little help in the direction I sould go. I will be installing a stealth box with a single sub, new door and rear speakers. My question is should I use a single 5 channel amp (mrv-f450) or a seperate sub (mrp-m350) and 4 channel (mpp-f240) combo? I have access to all 3 Alpine brand amps at the moment and just need a little advise on which way to go.

I have a 6 channel Infinity amp. It's ok compared to the two separate amps I have in my grand prix. The reason I got the 6 channel is basically because of space saving. If you have room get two amps.

Go with the dedicated sub amp. The amps are much better and get a class D mono block amp.
