Best 2500 watt rms amplifiers around $500 for the casual listner Skar SKv2, Orion xtr 2500, JP23,any others?

I'm new. I need guidance please. I have two  Sundown Sa-12 1000 watt D4 subs and I am trying to decide on the right amp. Just started researching and this what I've observed so far.  I'm looking more for efficiency, realizability and quality vs which amp puts out the most power.  For example I saw the Orion uncertified dyno test where it did 3866 watts @ 1ohm (beast) but it pulled 481 amps of current. The dyno test on the SKv2 3500 pulled 400( would assume the 2500 pulls less current.  Also the JP23 did 3334 watt and pulled 361 amps.) Should that much current be a concern? Isn't that what put stress on your. II realistically need 2000-2500 watts rms with the least amount of strain on my vehicle. I'm not in competition. I'm not going to go out and spend $500 for a 420 amp  alternator and another $400--$700 for  for an extra battery/power bank. I have an XS power battery, the big 3 upgrade and if necessary I'll fork out $350 for a 250 amp alternator. I know the Orion is a monster and I can control the power. But I'm told to be careful with Orion bc of bankruptcy. And I also read that the amp doesn't perform as well when wire to two Subs with a 1 ohm load. Any comments, insights and recommendation would be greatly appreciated.
