[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 6302019, member: 540940"] the power will be split between the 2 subs. Get the dvc 2's and wire for 2 - that will get you 250w per sub. If you want to drive the subs near or at their limit you should be looking for something around 1000w rms at 1 or 2 ohms. If you do consider going to a larger amp - 100w above the rms rating on a decent quality 400w sub shouldn't be a problem. Just set your gain at a reasonable level and you aren't going to hurt anything. [/QUOTE]
