Default Need some help choosing Amp and Sub

Ok, I'm not too familiar with these things so I really need some opinions Basically I found out that I can get Rockford Fosgate and Kicker amps for almost nothing, so I've choose 3 of the multichannel amps and want to know opinion from you guys. Basically, I need to know what you guys think I should get and in what priority should I put these.

1. Rockford Fosgate 600.5C
2. Kicker KX700.5
3. Kicker Impulse IX405D

And for subs I want something with solid sound, doesn't have to be loud. Plus, I want to know the difference of sound quality in open air, sealed, and ported. Thanks

1. Kicker Comp 01C124
2. Kicker Comp VR 01C8vr4
3. Kicker Comp VR 01C10vr4

I would go with the RF amp and the 10VR sub.

I don't think any of those subs are open air subs. Ported boxes are usually bigger and offer more bass response, however, you if not designed properly the speaker can become unloaded and damaged due to excessive cone travel. Sealed will require the smallest box size and offer good bass response. Sealed is the easiest to build yourself.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. BTW, these components are for a '92 Acura Legend.
