if that is the amp you have, then if and only if you use dual 4 ohm subs, you either have to run it 2ohms stereo, or your going to have to run each speaker to 8ohms then back down to 4 on that amp bridged... power is going to be same 2ohm stereo, and 4 ohm bridged.

tha is a 2 channel amp, run + to + , neg to neg on 1 sub, then run +,- to 1 channel on the amp,do the same for the other sub.

that amp will never push those, it it not going to push what it says, you need dual 4ohm subs, and the only on clost to maybe working on that amp is the 2nd link, the black ones, and you may be pushing it with that. Its all about the amp, not very good at all.

on a tight budget it's hard to beat the
Viper D600.1 at
www.ikesound.com

That along with a decent pair of 250-300w rms subs with dvc 4's would make a good combo. The Heritage's are pretty good $100 subs. The Max's aren't quite the same quality but they're hard to beat for the cost.

for $20 more you could get this -
http://cgi.ebay.com/Lanzar-Car-Mono-Block-2000W-Digital-Amplifier-AMP-AMPS_W0QQi temZ5878592404QQcategoryZ18797QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

which would be about twice the power compared to the viper.

i say a audiobahn a8002t or a8000t. it puts out 800 watts and that way you can get a 400 watts sub

get a couple of comp vrs or alpine type-r's and you will be set with that amp and the subs.

thats my opinion
