I found those up to SRIDM-4, but not 8.
PS. Just went to look at the power, it is 58W into 8 Ohm. So the top current (let's forget about current waveform etc) is 2.7A (which is close enough to initial guess of 25W into 4 Ohm which is 2.5A). Half that (bridge rect) is 1.35A and two channels make it 2.7A again. Plus this is peak power which is unlikely to be sustained. So a 4A diode would be still my choice. But not 1A.
I do not think a 1A diode will cut it here.
