Amp for alpine subs?

Ok I have 2 12" Alpine Type E's, I am looking for a good amp to power them, before i have had only crappy amps pushing them, Boss, power acoustics, only because ive got them for next to nothing. But how does this amp sound

Rockford Fosgate Punch 501S

125 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms
250 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms
500 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms in bridged mode
1500 Watts x 1 at 2 ohms in bridged mode
stereo or bridged mono output
4-ohm stable in bridged mode

This is not a competion sound system, i would just like to have the subs back in my car with a good amp.

Also the subs are in a ported box. Or would i be better off, with a sealed box, i can change my box easily.

Thanks
Kevin

I'd say go sealed... and what about JBL for an amp? 600.1 or 1200.1
