RMS is the actually number of watts the amp puts out. Peak is, well the peak amount of watts the amp is capable of. Ignore peak wattage all together. Look for how many watts RMS the amplifier is pushing.

with quite a few manufacturers, peak = output possible during a 1 microsecond transient while being struck by lightning, draining the power supply and frying the board... like the 2400 watt Blitz Audio amps //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Just a correction, matching the amp with your subs (brand) will not help or hinder performance. It is product dependant, meaning that it will defer from model to model.

Save up a little while longer and get this. It should give you enough power. You won't regret waiting longer to get the right thing.

Hifonics is the company known for high quality budget amps. I highly doubt you will find 1200 watts of REAL, CLEAN power brand new in the box for cheaper than that. Good luck.
