They are all good amps but my first choice would have to be the JL. But Audiobahn dose make some very strong amps.

If you were to go with JL you would need to get either 2 500/1 or a 1000/1. If I were you I would go with the Audiobahn A8001D it’s a strong amp and will push those subs hard

Personally I like sealed but if your looking for high spl then go for ported. But sealed will give you tight clean bass.

Personally I don’t like band pass. A band pass enclosure will hit only the frequency it was tuned for. Plus they are complicated to build. The only advantage is that they are efficient when it comes to power. If you have a low powered sub in a band pass box it will take a lot less power to push the sub then if you had it in sealed or ported enclosure. Try to go with a ported or sealed

Also when choosing a box be sure to get one that is specifically built for the sub you intend to put in it. Each sub has its own parameters which are unique for that sub. So each sub needs an enclosure that is designed for those given parameters.

Just as bberman1 said,

Usually the sub will come with a spec sheet showing you the specs on a sealed and ported enclosure. Build according to that sheet if provided.
