ok ive been lookin at 2 amps,
Audiobahn A8000T Mono Amp
Max Power: 1600W
4U Mono : 400W x 1 RMS
2U Mono : 800W x 1 RMS

and

Audiobahn A8002T 2 Channel 1600W Amp
2 x 200W RMS @ 4U
2 x 400W RMS @ 2U
1 x 800W RMS @ 4U

could i wire them both up on the mono at 2ohms so each gets 400w? how about the 2 channel....can i wire them each up on there own channel at 2 ohms so they can get 400w each?

which one would be better?

Since you bought Sony subs then you might as well go with an Audiobahn amp.

yes the audiobahn amp will work just fine for you. if you want also look into Mtx, and JBL they both make pretty good cheap relible amps.

either one will work fine I would actually try a JBL bp600.1 if you can find one on Ebay or maybe someone around here is selling one.

Depends on what impedance the subs are. If they are 4 ohm or dual 2 or 8 then a 2 ohm stable monoblock is the way to go. If they are 8 ohm or dual 4 then you'd get the most power out of a 2 channel amp.

Oh and calling people names isn't usually the best way to get good help here, regardless of how stupid their comments are.

Yeah a JBL BP600.1 would be a good choice unless the subs are 8 ohm. It produces the same amount of power into 1 or 2 ohms.

I'm sorry, but I was being serious. If the rms of the Sony subs is 350 x 2 = 700watts then you will need about a 2500 watt Audiobahn amp wich will cost the same as the jbl amp wich will put out about the same power. I wasn't trying to be rude, only funny. Sorry man.
