I have a JL 500/1 powering two ED 9kv2's and they sound awesome, just upgrade to two Orion XTR 10" prototype subs. 1-Will the 500/1 handle them, here are the specs of the sub and 2-do I need a 1000W RMS amp and if so which is best priced and best performer, do not want to spend another $400 and an amp! Orion specs. Pair (2) woofers XTR PRO 10" Dual 4 ohm voice coil Cast Aluminum 12 spoke vented basket 2.5" voice coil Braided 14 gauge tinsel leads Aluminum Dust Cap "turbulence" 100% QC Tested 500 Watts Continuous 1000 Watts peak FS: 28Hz Sealed Enclosure Volume: 0.8 Ported Enclosure Volume: 1.0 Sensitivity: 93dB

I just order one of these yesterday http://www.edesignaudio.com/edv2/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=44 Can't wait for it...1200 underrated watts rms at 12.5 volts baby!!!!!
500/1 will be fine...it puts out more of like 700 watts I have a 500/1 pushing two Type R's right now...does the job fine. doubling power increases 3 dbs...won't be much of a noticeable difference from 500 watts to 1000 watts...difference may be in the dynamic output...you got more headroom with 1000 watts than 500 watts but the different isn't too big Just sell your 500/1 and buy a Nine.1
