I know nothing about that HIFONICS amp but if you decide to go rockford then get the 3001 not the 3002. You want a mono amp capable of running 2 ohms mono, that Rockford amp wont do that and that HIFONICS might not either so check it out first.

ok both the p1 and the p2 are both single voice coil 4 ohm drivers so if you want to run two of them then you must get an amp that is 2 ohm stable, at least if you want to run them effectivly.

I would go to locustaudio.com and get a kenwood 811d this amp will do 4,2,or1ohm 230.00 great amp and will give you upgrade option later if you want better subs but for a little more i would get the 2 p3 dual 4 ohm in a ported box and wire them for 1ohm and push 1000 watts from this amp and you will give yourself a heart attach from the bass
