I recently got 2 12" Single 4-Ohm Assassins. http://www.ascendantaudio.com/assassin12specs.html#specs

My question is what amp should i get to push them to thier full potention, looking for something like 450 rms to each sub. Also, should i be getting a mono channel or dual channel amp? I only have about 250-300 to spend on the amp, ebay sounds good, any links or suggestions on finding the best amp for these subs?

you need an amp that does around 900-1000 and needs to be 2 ohm stable.

check the a8000v, those amps are good for your subs

Yea the a8000v is what i will probably end up going with. But one question, are the assassins supposed to be house speakers because the site i purchased them looks like it only sells house speakers. Should i have got different subs?
