Powering a Fi BL18 with a MB Quart DSC 1000.1 amp?

[SPLmatic 10+ year member]

Trying to stay on budget here, thought the Quart would be an acceptable amp to run with an 18''. But I've heard this amp provides slightly less power than it's supposed to. Really looking to run this sub at 1000w rms.

Advice is much appreciated!

Cadence and Planet Audio sound a little sketchy to me, just because I haven't had any experience with either of those companies at all. Give me some reassurance?

the mbquart is an a/b amp now the 1500 and 2000 are great amps just havent had as much luck with the 1000 rms one

id get the cadence and tony and roy are great to deal with if you have any problems they will fi the problem asap
