A Zed Audio Minilith would be sweet if you can find one (new, sold for around $230). Typical RMS was 480 watts into mono 2-ohm load.

Zed's website says they are revamping the lineup for 2009......not sure when the new products would be revealed though.

Well.. I could tell you that I'm running 1000/1 JL amp on 2 10w3v3's with no problems at all for a year now... and that I get amazing bass out of them at Zero gain (I do have the bass **** though but I don't think that affects the actual gain on the amp it self). I think the 1000/1 amp is overkill for my two lil subs because my ****ing trunk ratles like crazy when I turn the bass up even though I have dynamated the hatch.. so I think with proper gain adjustments the 500/1 would be a better match for the 2 10w3v3's and cheaper!

Trunk rattle much? I have 2 waiting to get installed, but may just run 1 10". I plan on installing sound deadener in the doors and trunk area though.

^^^No, didnt really rattle, but it was too much bass for me, I now only have one W3v3 and it sounds so much better in my opinion...
