hi eugene,
how many inches r the subs?? a pair of them?? how many watts??
but i'm sure most 2 channel amps with a decent RMS n watts can push the subs..try to consult the local car accessory guys..
happy listening mate...

try this amp out at your local car stereo dealer if they have it.. since ur getting an alpine maybe this model might be at the reasonable range.
the model is of Alpine V12 MRV_T301 300 rms wattage 2 channel. that is if ur type r sub is 10 ". if say ur sub is about 12" then i'll suggest u to get an amp of around 500 to 700 rms.
U could try some other amps like kenwood, kicker, rockford's.. i've personally push a 12" kicker sub with a cheap taiwan 500w amp..not sure bout the rms in that amp as u know it is made in taiwan.. my whole car felt like it was falling apart when i pump up d volume till the sub's capacity.
anyway do scout around n get the amp tested on ur sub b4 purchasing it.. but the box for ur sub is very important too...
gd luck bro..hope i manage to help u a little at least..
take care n gd luck mate..
