choice No.1
Alpine MRD-M500
900W MAX Power
500W x 1 (2ohm 14.4V)
price: 300-350

choice No. 2
MRD-M300
600w MAx
300w x 1(2ohm 14.4v)
price: 250

the sub i have and the one i will be getting
10" (4ohm + 4ohm)
1000w peak
300w rms
frequency 28Hz-2kHz
You are getting 2 of those subs that handle 300rms? It looks to me as if the ratings of the amps you listed are max ratings, that isn't nearly as important as the rms ratings, that is what you should go by when getting an amp to push your subs. Find out what the rms ratings are, only then can an educated suggestion be made.
