Powering speaker and a subwoofer without built in amp

Hello there, I have this really nice set of bookshelf speakers that i was planning to power with a mini amp like the lepai 2020 etc however i have this AMAZING sounding subwoofer from a home theater that wasn't being using and i want to know how i can power the bookshelf and subwoofer with an amp or amps. The subwoofer doesnt have a built in amp and is only connected by RCA cables. Please suggest amps $150ish and under that could power my boookshelf and subwoofer (having at least 3 channels with enough power for a SUB). Also is it possible to power my bookshelfs with one mini amp and my sub with another and just connect the audio inputs into the appropriate places on my computer?

Model # & brand would help as would a pic.

RCA cables typically carry line-level not power-level signal so more info would be useful for anyone trying to answer this.
