There are a ton of options. We would first need to know which voice coil configuration you went with.

Looks like any amp that will do between 2000 and 2500 at 2 ohms. Kicker ZX2500 would be a good option. You could also do a pair of 1000's provided they are both 1ohm stable. If you wanted to stick with Diamond, a pair D6 1200.1's would do it.

Two of those won't work. And they would be under powering those subs. If you go with a single amp, it will need to be 2ohm stable, if you go with a pair of amps, each will have to be 1ohm stable. The subs are dual 4 ohm subs, so you have to be selective about your amps.

Yes, two of those will work. I stress to you that you will be under powering them with this choice though. Roughly half of RMS. I totally understand the budget constraint though. Maybe you should go with 2 of them for now until you can properly power all four? just a suggestion though.

And because I missed it, Welcome! It is good to have you here.

Something that will do between 1200 and 1500 watts at 1ohm. See if you can find one used here or on other car audio forums. When you are ready to upgrade. Just buy another amp and add the other two subs.
