Which amp Nady 850 or Behringer 500


I need a new amp to power my new subs. I have built the RE 15" sub and am building a shiva-x sub. Which of the 2 amps are better for my subs? The Nady is 190 the 500 is 160.

Thanks in advance

I have also found this amp SHS SA-1500. Very similar to the nady spec wise but for $150 shipped on ebay. Here is the manufacturers website: http://www.shsaudio.com I also found this one:Alesis RA500 very similar tp Behringer 500.
