When you're working with a budget as little as $200 your best bet is to look on e-bay and try to find a deal. Good luck.

Sounds like you need a JBL BP1200. You can get a used for $200 easily or else spend $50-75 more for a new one. 1200 watts at 2 and 1 ohm.

That's a skimp budget for those speakers. Dual or single voice coil? If single voice, you could get a new bazooka ELA5001. not a bad mono amp for 200.

Yep best bet is ebay.... you might be able to find some... but the JBL does make the advertised RMS... so go with that!!
