Go to crutchfield and check their selection and cross reference it with amazon or another site. The amplifier is one of the most important parts of your stereo and one of the more expensive per piece. Be willing to dish out dough when it comes to amps.

Personally, I am running a Alpin PD-x 5 but my Subs RMs is 50-350. At the time the amp was roughly $500 which isn't bad and I like middle of the road. I have heard of heating issues with hifonics but haven't heard anything elsem, just do research and don't pay high retail and I think you will be good.

Both amps look like low-end mass produced stuff. Hifonics historically has had a better reputation so I had to choose between the two I would take the Hifonics. Personally though I wouldn't choose either. I'd look at some Memphis stuff if you can find it.

I have a good quality amp for sale if you're interested--check out my siggy. What's the impedance on the sub? also, is it dual voice coil or not? I just want to see if my amp will work with your sub.
