How are you wiring the subs together?

I would get the JL 1000/1 as it is 1000 watts at 1.5-4ohms. But the BD amps are beasts too.

Either would do i guess haha.

Personally, if you can find one, I'd go with a Sundown Audio SAZ-1000D. They're rated at 12.6V, so they'll do similar power to the bd1000, and are much more efficient. Now, since you said you're having someone do your install, they're probably going to try to tell you that Sundown is garbage and flea market crap, but if you look at competitors, you won't find many running RF power, and even fewer running JL amps, compared to many (probably 50+) running Sundown amps. Just a thought, and a suggestion...

If that's not an option, go with the Rockford. Their straight up beasts, but they do need some battery back-up...
