Need amp for 2 MTX 8000's - poll

[Stupid8000 10+ year member]

I just purchased two MTX 8000's. Thanks to everyone for their input in my previous poll. I now need an amplifier to power them. The subs are 500w rms and are dual 4 ohm so my amp needs to be 1 ohm stable. The subs are each going to have 2 cu ft in a sealed box. Here are the amps that I'm chosing from. Please post a reply and tell me why you voted for what you voted for. If it makes a difference it's going in a '85 s10 Blazer. I'm looking more towards SQL than SPL. Thanks in advance.

I voted US Acoustics, because they have been and still are very good to me, but the Memphis is a decent choice also, I am very curious in the new Cerwin Vega amplifers

Memphis is the way to go out of that list IMO. I've owned one as well as the Hifonics which will work as well but I'd get the BX1500 and watch my gains. You can get the eD nine.1 delivered to your door for $350 which is a very good deal and would put out 1200watts @ 1 ohm with 13.5 volts.
