good 5 channel amp for rears only


Hello everyone,
I've got B&W Matrix all around, 801s and 804s, using Classe to power the front two. I'm going to 7 channels, and am considering the B&K Ref 50. Do any of you have a recommendation for a 5 channel amp for the center, surrounds, and rears? I'd like something reasonable, but just don't notice much comes from these channels to justify (to me) spending over $1k for this amp (new or used). How are B&K 5 channel amps? Thanks in advance.

Elevick has a good point. You want to match your front 3 speakers as best as possible or it will sound off.
