I would go with the Kicker...I have that same amp and the birth sheet is right around 500. Very solid amp for the money.

Not sure it would be good for you application tho.

that cat doesnt know what he is talking about...6 months ago, people were all into Hifonics...they arent as quality as the Zed Audio Hifonics, but for the price, they are great amps...I have had FOUR Hifonics amps in my time, and none of them has ever had the slightest error that wasnt user related...

edit: its funny because ndn is running Hifonics...

the Orion Kicker and RF are all great options, they will all do well over their ratted power
