Default Help with amp choice?

Ive been doing some research on subs/amps and speaker setups.

I know which sub I want, JL audio 10w7. I'm not sure which amp to get. Which would be a good choice thats not rediculously priced?
Also, I was looking at polk audio front speakers/tweeters (components). Any opinions on those? Just some quick advise needed. Im not sure WHAT to do research on...

Im sorry I shouldve stated. I'd like to get everything in the 1k range total (minus install). Im not sure about what amp i'd be using to power the speakers, or which speakers. Im just looking what to research into. Within a week ro two i'd like to order the parts. I'm not going to go with a fancy looking install, just one that works well and reliablly.

I just got my nine.2 in and my nine.1 should be in later this week.

I'll post pictures once everything is running but it will be an eD 11Ov.2 with DLS UP6 components.

All I have to say is they are a bunch of great guys man from all the help I've gotten from them. I placed my order on Wednesday and got it Saturday with ground shipping

Total I've paid for amp, sub, and comps... around $800.
