Amplifier choice

Hi, due to acquisition of a new amp, I'm in a position to cascade all my amps, the original install having been, IMHO, consistently underpowered. My question is re the amps for the subs, which are RCF TTS18. The manual gives specs for these as 8 ohm,1000w AES/4000w peak power handling. Currently, they run off an RCF DPS3000 amp, which is rated at 2 x 800w into 8 ohm

 

After the cascade, options I would have would be:

 

to bridge the above amp and run the subs in parallel - rating for this is 3,400w into 4 ohms

 

or to use 2 x MC2 T1500 in bridge mode, one for each sub, which is rated at 2,050w into 8 ohms.

 

The RCF amp is class HD and includes power factor correction, where the MC2 is a class AB amp.

 

Anyone any thoughts as to whether either of these is a better option?
