If you want that extra BOOM, make sure you point them at each other. There going to sound sweet them mate. Make sure you sound deafen or you'll get rattles.

I cant fault Alpine amps either. I had loads of different makes in the past, including the cheap BOSS Mosfet ones through pioneers and sonys to expensive Rockford Fosgates and Calibres, but the Alpines i found provided the most controlled sound out there, plus due to their mega efficiencies dont need a stupid size watts rating.

Go for a couple of four channel amps, one with an RMS rating that matches the subs and another with say 50watts RMS per channel for the four speakers in the car. Most aplines can be daisy chained for the PRE-OUTS, so dont worry if havent got a sub woofer Pre-out.
