Well, if you're on a tight budget have a look here and scroll down to the refurbed CA600. Rated for 225w/channel @ 2 Ohms and as Profile is slightly overrated it ought to hit right on the money for the top-end of your drivers' RMS rating.

Tough to beat for the price - $65 + shipping factory direct with a valid warranty. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Certainly the suggestions from Polecat and denim would be on the money, too, but I don't know what kind of $$$ you're wantingto spend so I was aiming for a suggestion on the other end of the monetary spectrum from the Kicker units already posted.

he said they were DVC2, so thats eaither 1ohm per speaker or 4ohm per speaker, and i know for a fact that he would be using the 4ohm load form a 2 channel amp.

by chance did you buy these 8's yet?

i wold STRONGLY recommend getting DVC4 so you can get a 2 channel amp for them and run them 2ohm stereo. it will be a cheaper amp and will get you more power to each one.

Whoops! You're right - I just had 2 Ohms on the brain and went from there. Then the same link applies but he should look to the 600MSX which will give him 410w @ 2 Ohm which he can achieve with a pair of 2 Ohm DVC drivers. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

just got them today.. will put pis up in a min..

but I got the DVC 2 instead of 4. Why? because dual 2 was $44 and dual 4 was $60

Yea Im on a budget so I will wire these puppies up in series and drop it down to 2 ohms.just trying to fid a Budget amp to power these
