MTX Thunder801D (price I can get it for : $289.00) or 3. Phoenix Gold Xenon X400.1 (price I can get it for : $239.00) also, just want to make sure before purchasing one of these... they will all work to power my sub right?

If you are going ported, a subsonic filter may be important. If your HU doesn't have a built in crossover, then a low pass crossover may be important.
