Help Finding an Amp!

So I am going ahead and purchasing 2 10" Rockford Fosgate P3 Slim Series Amps 4-ohm and I need an am to go along with them. Here are the subs and the web site I'm getting them from @ AudioVideoDimensions.com.

Here are some specs:

Size: 10 inch
Rec. Sealed Box Dims: 0.40 - 1.00 cu. ft.
Rec. Ported Box Dims: 0.75 - 0.75 cu. ft.
Free Air Usage: not recommended
Sensitivity: 83 dB
Frequency Response: 45-250 Hz
Recommended RMS Power: 300W
Peak Power Handling: 600W
Impedance: Dual 4 ohms subwoofer wiring options

What would you guys recommend for a amp?

Thank you in advance!

My budget is between $500 to $700. Not looking for anything crazy just something to add alittle more bass to the factory Bose system in my car. The price range includes the install and the custom box enclosure and the place that I am taking it to (High Fidelity) said that they could do it for that and they do amazing work (i've seen in person on my buddies car).

what you need is a amp that does 750w-1000w at 1ohm rms you should get a amp with alittle more headroom so when your gains are set with a dmm that it is seeing a clean signal and doesnt clip the amp because it will over heat the coils on the subs and blew them if not done right.

if you can do the $275 i would go with the sundown saz1000d one of the best customer service companys in caraudio amps work great sound good and dont draw alot of current from your cars battery and whats best is the 2 year warranty they come with in case something ever happens to it.

O ok ya I don't know crap about audio at all lol. I was pointed to the P3's by a friend of mine haha.

So one mono amp for 2 10" subs:

Kenwood KAC-8104D

Bazooka BA1900D

MTX 600XD

Other than that, that is all I can find... If you have any suggestions that would be great as I have no clue what to search for to fit the subs that I want to get lol.
