aren't they rated at 1000wrms? if so just get an amp that'll do 1000wrms at 1ohm (seeing as how you posted the dual 2ohm model), anything else really wouldn't be needed. post a budget, but i'd say sundown sae1000d.

If you had good charging and didn't clip the signal you could give it like 2krms, but I wouldn't reccomend it.

My buddy gives his 1500rms daily and for burps and he has never had an issue.

that amp has a very low build quality and is more than likely overrated. IMO not overdoing but "underdoing"

A while back I had a L7 15" D2 on a Sundown SAZ-1500D bangin it at 1ohm 15000RMS for about 9 months without any problems.(Beat on that sub HARD everyday)

But if I was you I would check out the CVX's they sounds better than L7's.

CVX's = More towards SQ
L7's = Straight SPL/Loudness
