I have done some more looking and have found an Anthem MCA5 power amp for sale. Now looking at these units, they are from the early part of 2000 so the unit is at least 10 years old but could be 15. The cost is about $200 less than an Emotiva XPA5 but it is also local and Anthem is a local company too, so getting it fixed if it does break would be far easier. I have heard good things about them.

The unit is rated down to 2ohm so I know it's more than enough. 250W@ 4ohm should be enough.
