that amp says nothing about working at 2 ohm stereo, so get the dual 2 ohm version of the type-r's

you'll be feeding them about 370w rms and they should be able to hold their own with that, even tho they're rated at 300w rms

well - that amp you got cannot run at 2 ohm stereo - so dual 4 ohm subs would be bad for it, and it would shut down continuously

the dual 2 ohm, you can wire them to 4 ohms, and thats whatt he amp you got can take

still a little confused.. is there a way where i can put 550 into each sub with that amp if i get the 2ohm type R's (yes or no) and if not what is the total amount of watts i can put into each sub? by the way what do you have currently runing?
