need an amp

need help picking out an amp i have 2 12's l7's 08 models dual 2ohm subs in a aeroport 5.2cuft tuned to 34hz

so i am looking for an amp stable around 1500rms at 2ohms or .5ohms in the 400-450 dollar range or less

if i go with .5ohms how much electrical will i need i currently have big 3 in 1/0 and a 130amp alt, and a duralast gold 1000amp battery

with the sub amp and comp amp i will have around 2200-2400rms so if i put a batcap 2000 in the back will that solve my problems or will i also need a yellow top or kinetik 1400-1800 upfront

.5 ohm daily is a sure way to burn stuff up quick I'd stick with 2ohm

1500watts @ 2 ohm gives you lots of options some decent ones are
Kicker ZX,these can be had for good deal and it would match your subs.
MMats,a Little more expensive in a smaller footprint.
Hifonics,dirt cheap but not bad if your just trying to make 2 L7's pound.

Caps dont help, they only add to the strain on the electrical system.
Best to start with a good battery up front Yellow Top and Kinetic make damn good batteries,Then if you have dimming try other options.

My System adds up to about 1750+watts and I only get a little dimming
after hours of high volumne play with a stock battery.
