With dual 4 ohm voice coils, that amp would provide 550W to each sub...so it would work, yes - although if you could get those subs with 2 ohm DVC's, you would increase the power to 900W per driver.

actually he can wire it so the amp sees a 1 ohm load and each sub would then be getting 1150 watts:

Is the amp stable to a 1 ohm mono load? Not sure if it is, pretty sure it isn't...

the specs are on page 5. it says 1 ohm stable in stereo. whats the difference? is it worth it to buy 2 subs and amp. i have 2 10's, they are visonik and in a band bass box. i have a kenwood ps200 amp, its kinda old and i think its only 200 watts. no one knows anything about that amp, can you help? would those subs and amp be a huge difference, the power acoustic ones?thanks
