Default Quality 4 channel amp

Looking for a new amp for my C6 coupe. Presently have a JL 450/4v2 powering my HSK Hertz fronts (125 rms) and JL 525 rears( 60 rms) all the speakers sound great together and are staying, just the amp goes. It’s runs very hot and draws a lot of juice.
Looking for a real quality, modern type D amp. The wattage rating on the JL was just perfect for my speakers offering 150w per up front and 75w per rear. Seems I can’t find anyone making similar power splits in a class D Amp.
I'm very willing to get one which offers more power and I can just turn down the gains if need be but don’t want an underpowered amp. Quality and power is top of the list of needs. suggestions welcomed, thanks.

I was looking at the next generation one from the one you have, the newer Mil power 4 have and even started a thread about it a few days ago and was almost set to pull the trigger but comparing specs has a pretty low signal to noise number. Yours on the other hand has a higher number. 80 v. 100. One thing I can’t stand is hiss noise coming from an amp not that I’m sure it does but all the quality amps I see have higher S/N then 80.
The one you have seems difficult to find new nowadays.
