If you can afford the Massive's from rushrun, I feel that would be a better choice. It is well known here rushrun takes good care of his equipment, and Massive amps are a good choice. I personally have not owned one, but have been around enough over the years. Worry less about most watts or stated or rated watts, and more about durability and quality and features. A few seconds on ebay and here are a few quality choices also: Diamond 1000+ watts http://cgi.ebay.com/DIAMOND-AMPLIFIER-D3-1100-1_W0QQitemZ170398905255QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Amplifiers?hash=item27ac90f3a7 US Amps AX 600 (plenty of power for the SSD) http://cgi.ebay.com/US-AMPS-AX600DE-600W-Class-D-MONO-CAR-AMPLIFIER-AMP-new_W0QQitemZ390101831716QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Amplifiers?hash=item5ad3e19024 Another Diamond: http://cgi.ebay.com/DIAMOND-AUDIO-D3-1100-1-Mono-1100-Watt-Car-Amplifier_W0QQitemZ120477281024QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Amplifiers?hash=item1c0d016b00
