[QUOTE="What was that?, post: 8275445, member: 606737"] Max power is the most they can handle for a split second without blowing. RMS is what you can continuously put to them. 4ohm is the impedance each individual subwoofer runs at. 2 ohms is the impedance the subs run at when wired together. If your final ohm is 2 then you should get an amp that is at least 2 ohm stable. Most are. 2 channel or mono is your preference. Two channel you can run a left and right. If a 2 channel is bridgeable then you can run it as a mono set up. A mono set up is what a lot of people prefer for dedicated woofer amps. As far as power pick an amp that has head room vs your sub's so it is not working full tilt all the time your listening to music. If your sub's are 600 rms at 2 ohm you would want a 800w @ 2ohm amplifier. [/QUOTE]
