As the title states, I need to get my hands on a decent but not overly expensive amp that can do 1000WRMS @ a 2 ohm load. I have a older Fosgate 1000.1BD which would work real good im sure since it makes its power right at 2 ohms but its a little screwy and im not going to waste my patience on that pos lol. The Audiopipe 15001D caught my eye even thought it makes its power @ 1 ohm its not far off with 950w @ 2 ohms. Anything else out there I should look into? more is always better but the vehicle has a stock electrical system so running this D1 Sub at 0.5 isnt an option at this point lol

kicker zx1500 (2ohm 1500rms)

kicker zx1000.1

kicker kx1200.1

to name a few off the top of my head! all priced on ebay for ... 150-300~

There is effectively no difference to the ear between 950 and 1000.

In theory the difference is .2 decibels, good luck noticing that difference

AQ1200

If not, a Sundown Audio?

Good luck choosing broham

US AMPS / RE AUDIO VLX 2DE or 3DE

audioque 2200D

those would be my choices.

alpine pdx 1.1000 is cheap on ebay

Kenwood has one that can fit : 9104 D IIRC or XR1 something (newer)

....etc
