    Any aslong as it can be bridged and you can change the frequency response, subs don't need high quality amps as any distortion it creates won't be heard since those waves will never make it to the sub, most subs are ran with mosfet amps as they're cheaper, the downfall is if you use mosfet for mids and highs it won't sound as good

    Looking at the specs the subwoofer wants 350w RMS power input, so try and find an amp that'll match that at 4ohms.

    Either a mono or a bridgable 2/3/4 channel.

    I have a few spare amps if you want me to check the specs if you're after something second hand and localish.

    Edit; The specs also have good enclosure recommendations etc to get the most out of it. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j...qrImcGniYFERGA
