Of those brands I would only buy Alpine. Sorry but you haven't given enough information for me to be any more helpful. What ohms are the subs? Are you just powering the subs? What's the RMS power handling of the subs? Are you wanting this to power front speakers too? Looks like you're on a budget. I would suggest other brands for you such as USAcoustics or maybe even the new Phoenix Gold OctaneR series. PM me if you want a good site that can save you some money, I've dealt with quite a few myself.
The subs are 4 ohms, im just powering the two 10's, they can handle 180 watts rms and they can handle 250 watts peak, no I dont want it to power the front speakers too. What things should I look for that will let me know thatI am buying a good amp? Also how many watts should I be looking for to push these to their limit.....right to where theyll almost bust em but juuuuussst short of it?
Since they are both 4 ohm they can be wired to 2ohm in parallel. There are alot of monobolck amps that like a 2ohm load, I would run a class D over a 4 ch. AB on those. I reserve Class AB amps for super high fidelity. You won't notice a difference with those subs. Plus you'll put less strain on your alternator. You'll want one that's rated within 50W of both of your subs power handelings added together. The amps I stated above have some Class D offerings that would really fit your needs.
How much are you looking to spend?
PM me if you want some good online places to buy from.

Search Ebay or go to www.ikesound.com and check out the JBL BP300.1 or if you have a couple of extra bucks step up to the BP600.1. But then you would have to keep that gain on min. It would fry those woofers in no time. But you'd have power if you ever wanted to upgrade your woofers!
My friend that I am buying these subs from has a 300 watt jbl amp that he wants to sell me that has 4 channels. Prolly wont spend more than 150 becuase I can get the amp I just talked about for 150 and it use to puch these subs pretty good in his truck.
