[QUOTE="dragonrage, post: 7229708, member: 574321"] You can get any size amplifier you want. If your amplifier is smaller than the subwoofers then you may not be able to get max output but that depends on the rest of the system as well. If your amplifier is significantly larger than what the subwoofers can handle then you will risk blowing them from too much power. If you keep your gains at the appropriate levels, though, you will be good. I would get a larger amp, keep the gains modest and then I'd have an amp I could use if I wanted to upgrade to better subwoofers later. [/QUOTE]
