Take a look at this one I haven't ever had a Hifonics amp but they are supposed to be really good but this would only match them if you could wire the subs at 1 ohm:

This one is a lot cheaper and Phoenix Gold has a great reputation for amps but it will be underpowering the subs by about 200W and this would be good if you can wire the subs at 2 ohms since it isn't stable at 1:

Do your subs have the 2 or 4 ohm voice coils?

Sorry I meant how many ohms is each voice coil they have the 2 ohm voice coils and the 4 ohm voice coils. Since you have 2 subs they can be wired at 1 ohm if they are 4 ohm voice coils and 2 ohms if they are 2 ohm voice coils. You would also have some other options but those are the best options.

You already have that amp hooked up to the two Type R's? If your running it at 1 ohm that should be just enough power. What is your budget for an amp and how many ohms are the voice coils.

I wouldn't go with the kicker because you aren't going to get even close to enough power since it is a 2 channel amp. The alpine would be good but your still going to be underpowering the subs by about 200w so in that case I would stick with the Phoenix Gold amp I showed you above since it is a really good price.

If I were going to buy an amp though I would go with this Kenwood eXcelon the eXcelon amps are their high quality ones and they really deliver the stated power from what I have seen. I have the smaller (600w rms @2ohm) version of this one and I had it connected to an older type r and it pounded:

It really comes down to what you want since it's going in your car but I would stick with the Alpine, Phoenix Gold or Kenwood eXcelon and if you find a Kicker mono amp in that price range with 1000w RMS it wouldn't be a bad choice either.

I would go with a Jensen amp or maybe a rockford one from the swapmeet. You know the one that looks like kenwood but says rockford? lol

Or a coby one that looks like it was meant to say sony.

IT HAS SONY GUTS! (In my best A-Rab voice)
