It says right on the ad, it's 380w x 1 @ 4ohms.
The question you should be asking is how much of that 380w is clean power.

On cheap amps, they tend to distort/clip more as you raise the power.
Just a rule of thumb, use cheap amps with cheap subs. You can use high quality amps with cheap subs, but not the other way around.

Rule of thumb is that the amp can be better than the subs but it doesn't make sense vice versa ....

Not to mention those subs are 300wrms. you would be underpowering them by 110 watts apiece i believe if i did my math right. give them a true 300 each and they will sound great trust me (i have two of them myself.)

no it's the second version of the W3! basically it is what the old W6 was before the recent design changes.....they are good woofers....and can take a beating like you wouldn't believe! (had one on a wall socket for a couple minutes due to a voice coil issue) that thing did not wanna blow!! but for them to shine you need to get a decent amp for them....look on ebay for some kicker amps or even a hifonics amp over that pioneer!!
