    That's a good sub. The frequency range and sound quality are very good. The RMS rating for that sub is 75-350 watts. You want an amp that is in the upper half of that range. An amp around 200-250 watts sounds good. I'm partial to Kenwood equipment so if it were me, I'd look for a Kenwood KAC-8151D. It's a mono subwoofer amp basically designed for use with a subwoofer. It's produces 200 watts at 4 ohm and 400 watts at 2 ohm. If you're only running one sub, do NOT bridge it. It will be too much for the sub to handle. If you're running 2, definitely wire the 2 subs in parallel and bridge the amp.
    No projects. Life consumes my time and money.

    Get a JL Audio amp. All I have heard is that they make the best amps and subs out there (W7). Get the 250/1 monochannel amp. They rate their amps based on RMS power so 250 will do you well.
