Which Sundown amp for 2 JL Audio 10w7 ??

[cichlid_baby 10+ year member]

I'm throwing this idea around to see how feasible it would be. It might be too much.. but give me some ideas.

Okay.. I might be able to snag a pair of these 10w7 for a decent price. However, I am worried that because they are single 3 ohm coils, then I will not be able to run them efficiently on the Sundown amps. The 10w7 is rated at 750 watts rms each at 3 ohms.

What are some amp and wiring configurations that would work for me?

I'd like to give them their recommended power, but the JL website shows that the subs don't like to handle more than 750 watts continuous as it gets to the black line (warranty voided). Is this power rating from JL "over-rated" or "under-rated" for their subs?

I currently have 2 gauge power and grounds run in the car.. will your amp suggestions cause me to have to re-wire the car? This would also be another concern because hiding another run of cable or a larger cable will be quite difficult.

The 10" W7 is rated for 500 watts rms if I'm not mistaken.

1.5 ohms on a saz-1500d would work fine...
