Mono = one channel.

Stereo = two channels.

mono and stereo generally make no difference with woofers...if the subs are 150w then yes a 300w rms amp will be good

I prefer running stereo subwoofers at home, but in a vehicle you don't have that much physical space to worry about //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I am assuming you are looking at an amp rating....this just means that at 4ohm resistance, the amp will output 70 watts continuous power.

no..

im just trying to find a amp that will go with 2 10" kicker comp

which each have a peak power of 300 w

and a RMS of 150
