Wondering what is the best amp I can get for $300 or less?

[James84 10+ year member]

Im in need of a new amp and was wondering what amp would give me the best bang for my buck.

I was looking at the Soundstream Rub1.2500D for $296w/shipping on ebay.

Also im looking into getting new subs soon and was wondering what (2)subs would match that amp perfectly. I was looking at Soundstream Tarantula T7.152 to match the amp, but like I said, if you know of anything better at or around the same price as the amp/sub(FYI,subs are like $250 apiece) , plz feel free to post, any recommandations would be great.

Thanks!

EDIT: I also seen a AP3000D amp on ebay for 189w/shipping but comes out the be 100rms less then the Soundstream, but also cost over $100 less, opinions?

Or I seen the AC5000.1D for $182w/shipping on ebay?

Do yourself a favor and don't look on Ebay for amps. Most people here would recommend Skar, Sundown, DC, DD, Crescendo, Stetsom, and many others.

I recommend saving up a little more money and buying a quality amp, also a lot of great deals on this site or CACO if you are interested in buying used amps.

So your saying soundstream is not a good brand? The bands you recommanded I know of, but there way to expensive. Sundown whats $400+ for there SAX-1200D , im not going to be at competitions, and dont need top of the line, even though I looking to get atleast 2000rms amp. I was pushing 2 15' audiobahn aw150t w/ JL 500/1 amp and it was great, YES, was great, blow to having it at 1ohm, instead of it's rated 2ohms. Oh and plz dont get me started on how much DD cost for there amps/subs.

All I need is something that would flex my van, not as in cracking/breaking windshields, but some flexing. Maybe 2 15'' rated at 1000rms with a 2000rms amp? Dont care about make/model, as long as it gets the job done with out breaking my pocket.

Is there anything that you can recommand me for less then a $1000, subs and amp.

EDIT: How do you/ya'll rate RE and MASSIVE AUDIO, any good?

Hifonics BRZ1700 is an awesome amp on a budget, they are around 200$ new, as for subs I would go for two SA15's or two SkarVVX15's maybe even Type R 15's

I don't know much about RE or MA sorry.
