legacy is a questionable company. whats your budget? and what do you want out of your system(SQ, SQL, SPL)?

we can help you get something of quality once we know these.

legacy is firmly among the lowest quality gear availabe.

If you tried to put 4000w to those subs you'd have yourself a bonfire in a hurry. The RMS power capability is probably 400-500w per sub.

The amp -
Judging by the numbers you posted it's the LA2259 -- if you look in the manual you'll see it's rms power is 900w bridged.

IF this is your first set up, and IF you can get everything for no more than $250 to your door, it could hypothetically be a decent place to start.

However, I don't advise starting out with a pair of 15's. To get good performance out of 15's (even good ones) it takes a well designed LARGE enclosure.

I think you might be better served going with smaller, more respected equipment.

A GOOD single 12 in a GOOD ported enclosure getting plenty of power can sound very good and satisfy even a hard core SPL fan.

Sell everything. Check this setup for you:

Kicker zx 400.1
Pioneer ts 307DVC or kicker CVR DVC 4 ohm
Ported box tuned to 33 Hz
