Default Need input on new system setup

I'm planning on getting 2 10's, http://www.infinitysystems.com/carau...er=KPE&Cat=SUB But I'm wondering which amp I should get. I'm looking at either the Phoenix Gold Xenon 600.1 or the Octane-R 8.0:1 Which one should I go for? Also how would I wire them up? I found some diagrams HERE to follow but a little unsure which one to use.

I suggest NOT to go with the Octane series. Personally, I think that line sucks. They're like a friggin tonka toy. Xenon amps are not bad. Try and track down a Tantrum series amp. It's good ****, unfortunally, its discontinued.
