Which Amp for ID Comps?

[jmon22 10+ year member]

I am going to purchase a set of Image Dynamics CTX65CS speakers for my truck and I need an amp for these. They are rated at 100 watts rms. I found 2 contenders at Crutchfield.

Which do you think would sound better? I have heard RF amps usually do more power than advertised so I hope the Fosgate amp would have enough umph for those speakers. Any other suggestions are welcome, but I feel a lot better buying authorized. (Especially since these prices are better than unauthorized for these particular amps.)

Go with the Alpine bridged, or this Orion Cobalt 600.2 is nice little amp. I just got one for my comps...

While I realize my excessive bumping is extremely annoying, I am looking to make a purchase tonight so any input would be much appreciated.
