Need help picking right amp!!!
What's up guys. I'm wanting to get 2 Sundown sd-2 10s, but I can't find the right amp. They're 4 ohm dvc rated at 500w rms. I know Sundowns can handle more power than stated, so my question is, what would be a good amp that's going to give each sub, at least, the 500w while being stable at 1 or 4 ohms? I've come across 1000w amps, but then they say something like 300w @ 4 ohm. I can't really seem to find one that'll push 500w to each sub at 1 or 4 ohm. Btw, It's going in a 2004 f150 supercrew. I want to go with these subs because my box isn't that big, and these are small(ish) yet still pack a lot of power. Basicly, I'm trying to make the absolute best, loudest, and best sounding setup I can with this box. Any suggestions on amps, alternate ways to get the power I'm looking for with these subs, suggestions of better subs, or experience with the sd-2 10s would be great. (Box will only fit 10s and mounting depth is slightly less than 6")
Thanks!
Thanks!

If you can't find a 1000W amp that runs 500 at 4 ohm why not just get a 2000W? That should be able to get you the power you need at the proper ohm loading.
