What amp to use with Boss B-530 speakers???

I'm trying to decide which amp to use with the B-530 speakers I got. I was originally looking at the Phoenix Gold Tantrum 600.4 and bridging it to 2 channels, but I think the 530s are 2 ohm and was wondering if maybe the Phoenix Gold Tantrum 500.2 might be a better choice.

Any suggestions and/or reasons why/why not?

Thanks,

I would go with the 2 channel, since the Boss B-530 is already set up for 2 ohm. I mean you COULD do the 600.4 and bridge, but why pump more power to the speakers than they can handle? We carry the full Pheonix Gold line, so give me a call if you want and i'll quote you some prices.

They are definately 2ohm. I sell them all the time with the PG tantrum 500.2. Any 500 2 ch. amp will be sufficient. PG is just what Boss sells.
