I can list amps all day long but it wont do any good if they dont meet your requirements. What is your budget? do you have size limits on the amp? what voice coil configuration does your sub have?

I do not want to spend over 300$ and size shouldnt matter. and it runs at 2 ohms from the amp

FYI, I boughta s10 l7 a few years back when they first came out. I believe rms was about 600 watts. I was using a 500 watt mono JL sub amp to power it. Blew three of them up at about 300 watts. Told the store to keep the last one and got a couple JL 12's could'nt be happier with them. After all the problems I had with the kicker I was informed you have to use a capacitor with that line of speaker. They may have all the bugs out now though. As far as purchasing an amp, I was always told a dollar per watt for quality sound. Good luck.
