that amp is probably 150x2 (300rms bridged) at best.. If they are just comps in ported box it'll work if sealed wont be very loud., just a lot better amps out there for $100 (even less)

I'd say go used, plenty of gems out there

So you would take a boss amp over a kicker

yeah I'm not a fan of boss or kicker., friends boss 2 channel died as soon as he changed sub, it was wired right (I took sub outa box and checked).. I had kicker comps before (probably when u were born lol) like they said they got worse since then., u want a good cheap sub look at pioneer 3003 $89 sonic electronix, honestly u could get 2 of the 304's for $88., if u have kicker comps (150rms each) the 304's are better subs, had them and loved them.. so are your subs comps and are the dvc what ohm? i'll look for cheap amp for u others guys here that have 20,000 watts won't even talk about $80 amps, if u gotta go cheap look at hifonics or ppi450 mono ..
