if this is the right sub, Legacy LW12590 12'' 2000 Watt DVC Legacy Red Series Subwoofer , then they are rated for 1000W rms

Any 100-250watt name brand amp would be perfect for those.

dont u want rms=watts?

If you run 2000 watts to 2 legacy subs they won't last 30 seconds. Those have 2" voice coils. It's also a misconception that you NEED the amp's rated RMS to match the Woofer RMS. That is a rated MAXIMUM. It is not required. So, those woofers you have are HIGHLY overrated. Those woofers are cheap copies of the original alpine type r. Take my advice and just give them a couple hundred watts and call it a day.
