What kind of electrical upgrades do you have to take on that kind of power? Strap 2 q2200's.......

Getting an amp that puts out that much power at 2 ohms is expensive especially if you want a korean amp. Getting a D2 subwoofer that will kick the sh*t out of that HCCA is much cheaper under 500$

however for your situation get a Brazilian amp, cheapest quality power at 2 ohms and only 2 ohms and up, dont wire lower then that or it'll pop. http://xplicitaudio.com/taramps-hd-4000-2-ohm/

If you're on a budget then go with Jeff's suggestion of Taramps, just make sure you neither clip nor wire below minimum impedance.

Or you could do Stang's suggestion and get 2 Soundqubed 2200s and strap them.

We are one of xplicit audio's distributors and are the national tech advisory for Taramp's.

If you have any questions, just ask.

You can clip the amplifiers fine as long as you do so below 14.4v.

You can run the amplifier up to ~15.8v as well as was the design of the power supply.

We have a chart showing what our engineering suggestions are for proper playback functionality.

We are currently designing the world's largest 12v amplifier yet again from Taramp's-

30,000w.

We have meeting with engineer last month in Tennessee and we are bringing to the public a more robust amplifier design under the Taramp's name that will please everyone.

If by "all day" you mean 20-30 seconds, than sure. From my experience seeing those subs burn up, I'd say 2KW is safe, beyond that you're asking for trouble. It won't be worth the very modest gains in output to push your woofer beyond it's limits. I'd guess for a lot less money you could get a lot more gains by just building a different box.
