Best bet would be to mono block and run them in parallel look at a alpine clarion or pioneer mono loking at maybe 300 - 350 from memory unless on special they may be under 300!!

you want someone with around the 300RMS power.. a boss amp or bose.. even a kenwood amp will run them but could be worth a little more ten $300

What you want is an amp that will give you around 600watts rms at 2ohm to fully utilise your subs.
Wire up the 2 subs in parallel to get a 2ohm load and then to the amp. Monoblock is prob best bet, otherwise a 2 channel amp that handles 2 ohm loads.

Arent BOSS a very cheap nasty amp, also Bose dont even do car sound, sorry but a Kenwood amp will probarbly die soon after the subs! I would go with the Alpine for sale.

Yeh the MRD-M500 would do a brilliant job. 567.8wrms would be plenty and you won't find anything close to it for that price.

i got a coustic 400W rms amp for $300 new and very similar sub specs and that runs them beautifully for the price plus you get a remote bass controller,
They get a great write up in car mags. |

mono blocks are good but id still choose a 4 or 6ch for your car if you want to amp the speakers inside aswell
