SOOOOO, what type of enclosure are you planning to use for the Infinity subs? That would be the first step to deciding what kind of power you'll need to make them hit their hardest.

Actually, since the OP wanted to know what would make them sound best, not just what would make them hit the hardest...you would want to get the best amp for the subs...which would be something around the rms of the subs. Then get an enclosure that is around the recommended specs for the subs. If you want a little tighter bass, go with the sealed. If you want more bass, go with the vented.

Remember, making them hit the hardest they can is not always best...not to mention could void a warranty on the subs if purchased with a warranty.
