One or two fans to cool an amplifier?

I have a Viper d1200.1 and would like to keep it from overheating. This is the one i'll be getting:

Is one enough or should i buy 2 to run across the top and the bottom of the amp?

You'll want one fan at one side of the amp rack and one fan at the other side, so that one is puhing air and one is pulling are. If your only going to use one fan, have it pushing the air. http://sl.wus0.com/quclk.go?rd=http://www.bcae1.com/amprack.htm&res=3&crid=4cbfbaae6e2ef51d&pos=1&mr=25&qu=amp%20rack
