its going to be hard to find an amp that will push any kind of power at 4 ohms and keeping it cheap since most are rated at 1 or 2 ohms. so you will have to get one thats capable of putting out double what you need and never getting full use out of it.

whats the RMS ratings on thoes subs?? you never go by max ratings.

300w max huh? So I guess that means about 150w rms a piece, 300 total?

www.profilecaraudio.com/amplifiers.htm
Check out the ca600 or the sx600.

Both are rated for 450x1 bridged at 4 ohms. Possibly a little over-rated, if not you can compensate with the gain. Pretty worthy budget amps IMO.

I used to run them of a kenwood rated 950peak worked fine... about planet acoustix? the reviews people have written on the amps claim there decent..

maybe the ov2-820 or maybe the 1200... it seems a bit sketchy... by how they said "super cool blue LED" :/

Optidriven, are those profile amps any good. I don't really care if they are underrated but are they trustworthy and reliable. Thanks
