Amp location in 2000 F150 supercab

[lariat flareside]

I am looking at buying a prefab box (https://www.supercrewsound.com/00F150ECdual.html) and running 2 kicker Comp VX 10’s at 4 ohms. I’m sure it’s right in front of my face, but I blatantly cannot understand how Amps work. So my question is what amps could I run to power both of these to the best of their limits? Should I do a vertical mount or will under the front seat be fine? I was contemplating a kicker amp to match the doors and subs, is that the right choice or are there better amps for the same price range? I know that’s a lot, thanks in advance.

For a basic system the kicker amps should be fine...

How much power from an amp would I need to get the most out of both of those subs? I was looking at a kicker cx 1200.1 which has 600 watts/ch and matches the specs of the subs perfectly. Is there any difference when running 2 subs to the same amp? Thanks.
