well the amp says 284Wrms, i have the pioneer and it really does need some power, theres 3 different quoted figures for it i have seen. 3000w max (basically can ignore this), 1000w 'nominal' and also seen 300w rms. I would say its more the 1000w figure.

I used to have this:

and thats 300wrms, it really did have some punch, at loud vol it never had distortion. pretty closely matched to that amp too. so i'd rec that. but i havent heard many other subs so others may have diff views...

No not really, the amp will only run at 4ohms, and the sub will run at 2 or 8ohms, a 4 channel amp is just about the worst thing there is to power a sub, if i were you i would get a 2ch amp or a mono block amp, and use the JBL to power a set of front and rear speakers, the sub will sound really poor if powered of that amp
