Help a brother pick an amp

[Colt9699 10+ year member]

ok here is the basics:

stock electrical (big 3 done)

1991 GMC Jimmy

Need it power a Kicker L5 15 D4 750 rms 1500 max

would like around 600 + watts

I need an amp that wont be to hard on my electrical and will put out rated or close to it power for under 250 shipped. Class D mono prefered

I was looking at...

PG Xeon X600.1

JBL BPX500.1

Directed 1500d

Viper 1200d

Kicker

Hifonics

I need your input and suggestions.

Biggest issues are the electrical and cost.

kicker zx750.1

Price and where can I find some specs and such?

Kicker seems a bit to pricy even on e bay.

I am leaning towards the xeon 600.1

and i can get it considerably under budget and it affords me alot of flexability with it doing power at 4 2 1 ohms.

PG's site says it greater than 80% efficent is this a good number to shoot for?

pg x600.1

i love mine! looks great.. stays cool even when pushed hard.. and doesnt over tax my ram alternator at all.. VERY solid choice.

seems the xeon is the one so far.....
