help me choose an amp

What amp would you all reccomend for two Kicker CVT-10s 4ohms? They are 400W rms each and I will get an underseat box for them. I would want to spend around $200 for the amp, or is this possible? at the most i would want to pay $300. Throw me some suggestions and prices, thanks.

i found a Alpine MRP-M1000 for cheap, it is RMS 1000W @ 2 ohms.
If i bridge my two 400W RMS 4ohms subs would that turn it into a 2ohms connection = 800W?
So would this amp be a good choice????
I am a novice at this stuff so if someone could help me out here lol

you could pick up a JL 500/1 for around that if you do some shopping around. They are a great amp, but if you pay full price they are not worth it in my opinion.
