Default Best amp for jl audio 12w3v2

I just purchased 2 jl 12w3v2's and theyre rated at 300 rms each. Now my question is which amp should i use to power these? i was looking at the rockford fosgate P6002 and it has the perfect amount of watts needed. Anybody have any experience with this amp? people with w3v2's, which amp do you use? thanks in advance.

that amp is brand new, so I don't think you will find many people with experinece. Word around the campfire is that they are pretty damn underrated - they do use CEA2006 ratings - whatever the hell you call them.

Apparently RF has gone back to their old roots with the new amps - at least with the power lineup.

jl subs like to be overpowered with an amp with the gain down
