Finally something I can partly answer. DO NOT GET A LOUDMOUTH AMP, very poor tuning of the input circuit and will constantly blow pills. I have used Loudmouth for years from 1 pill to 2x4 and was constantly dissapointed. I cannot speak of xforce but I purchased a 2 x6 davemade and so far have been extremely happy with it. You will pay a great deal more for Loudmouth amps. After observing several boxes through the years Davemade seems to be the way to go. Be careful from who you get the Davemade because some people will charge what seems like a franchise fee just to have the Dave name. Im hearing alot of good things about xforce so you may want to go that route. I can advise depending on what power plant you have under the hood get an amp that you can max amp versus one that you almost have enough juice to run.

It depends on the amount of power you wish to put out, and the trouble you wish to go to for the install.

A 200hd will do around 450 peak with your system, the X200 about 550 peak, and the X400 about 850 peak. BVe aware that the higher you go in power the more grounding and heavy cable will be necessary. Even the 200hd works better with added grounding in addition to the hot/ground hookup.
When you're ready for your install you can mail me and I'll be glad to help.....that is if you need it.
