    Supersimple question, Im just dumb

    I searched for a while but couldnt find the exact answer. Got 2 10" pioneer ib-flats in a sealed enclosure. My eclipse xa5000 is rated at 450w @ 2 ohms. the flats are rated at 300w nominal. wired in parallel to 2 ohms, is this amp going to be able to work or will they be too underpowered?
