500/1 is starving the sub also. Iv seen one run and it was with a 500/1 and boy It looked like it could take a hell of a lot more. the new 1000/1 amp when ever it drops will be the amp to have for it. Or something like a Tarantula, if ya pockets be uuuggghhh na na na.

i take that back...smallest amp i seen on one that still sounded decent would be a 500/1.....smallest amp i have seen on one is a kicker zr 240 and that foookar sounded like pure crap. i cant understand spending 250-350 full bore retail on an amp 2 yrs ago then spending 600 on a new woofer that needs at least double this power to start sounding ok....what do i know? to this kid it was tight but he is also planing on getting a bigger kicker amp for it and its not a class d amp.
