Do you have the subs wired @ .5 or 2 ohms?

If you're willing to wire @ 2 ohms, you could pick up a pair of sundown saz1000ds. They'll give you 1,800+ watts strapped @ 2 ohms...

Or you could drop the CVRs in favor of a pair of subs that'll take decent power.

Unless you're powering each sub with it's own amplifier...

The dual 2s would've enabled you to wire @ 1 ohm.

It's not the end of the world, man. You just need to find an amp that'll do the power you need (1,600 watts rms or so) @ .5 or 2 ohms. Buying a pair of strappable amps is an option as well...
