I have never heard anything great about JBL. I think JL makes a 250 watt monoblock amp. I am sure that would be a great match for your sub.

That subwoofer is not that great and will not require alot of power. I would look for an inexpensive mono channel amp. Avoid the cheaper companies like JBL, Legacy, etc. and mediocre companies like Pioneer and Kenwood.

Alpine makes great low power amps. For high power (which you will not need), I suggest Rockford Fosgate Punch Power.

Alpine amps are a good match for their subs.

Solo Barics and RF Punch Powers are the best subwoofers I have ever heard.

That 1000W MTX speaker is badass too; but I don't care much for MTX.
