you'd want ~2000@2ohms or around there unless you found an amp stable at .25 i think. i have a 13w7 and will be pushing an IA 20.1@3ohms til i get my mags, then drop it to .5 for ~2000rms.

edit: and a zx2500.1 was on my mind as well.

we've use 2 1000/1s all the time or if you want to run one amp, a t2001bd would work great

would be either a 1.5ohm load together or 3ohm load seperate

iirc both are dual 1.5.

either 3 or .75 seperate.

then 1.5 or .16 together

so after imp rise, you'll be over 2ohms anyways. find something that does ~2000rms@2ohms

i wouldn't trust the orion 2500ds anymore. not even the new ones. the failure rates are out the arse.

the kickers are great amps as well.
