Another "What Amp to go with my Sub"?

Since it seems like everyone is asking these type of questions, and are getting some good responses. i'll ask too.
i got a 10" JLw3v2 2 ohms. in a custom ported box, so i'm looking for an amp that came make at least 400rms at 2ohms and has a low frequency rating around 20hz or lower. i know JL500/1 but i can't afford that right now.... any help? thanks

You will probably blow it with a 1000 watts. I have the Alpine M605 and it blew a W3v2 it was a 12inch.

Yea, even if i had a 1000 bux to blow, i definatly wouldn't blow it on a subwoofer amp. i blew my Kenwood kx600.1, thats 600rms amp going into a 300rms sub, so i guess the little 10" is pretty strong.. looking for an amp that retails around 2-300..

I ahd the same sub in a proted box and had a Phoenix Gold Octane 8:0.1 pushing it. 600 watts RMS and 800 peak. It was more than plenty and very clean sounding. Only cost me around $200.

+1 and add another sub because the 1000/1 will fry your sub but really alls you need is a good tuned 500/1
