You should really find some subs first. You want to match your amp with whatever subs you are going to get. You want to make sure your amp is going to work well with whatever impedance your speakers are, after-all if you run a 1 ohm speaker on a 4 ohm sub, you will clip like crazy and blacken your coils a bit. If they are used, ask to try them first. See what one sounds the best, look some reviews up on-line. Ultimately this is a choice you have to make, I could sit here and say "Chevy is better than Dodge" all day long, but that doesn't mean that you will think Chevy is better than Dodge. The only thing I will say is the avionixx pushes the most watts at 4 ohms (according to their manufacturers ratings).
