You could hook up a 3k rms amp if you want, it just depends on how you set your gains and what kind of box its in. But the box is tied in with your reactive load, which will change depending on the music.

If you have an amp in your sights you might as well go with it, so if its the Merlin in mind and can get it, then get it. Everyone could sit here all day and tell you what amp to buy. Go with a 5k amp if you can find one, it will leave room for additions down the road.
