Monoblocks are mainly for powering amps - they have a single, high power channel. If you're planning on amping speakers, you can't use a monoblock amp.
1000W is it's peak power, which is just a marketing tool. It has no relevance whatsoever - you should instead be looking at the RMS value.

I can't recommend that amp to you until you pick a subwoofer you want; they have to be matched power-wise so it's best to get the subwoofer first and then find an amp for your needs.

if you really want to get true ratings, check if the amp is rated to cea standards. if not, even rms values are not reliable as they can be measured by various methods to favor the "marketing" of the the amp and not the buyer.
