[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 7868628, member: 540940"] Boss amps are ridiculously over-rated, and their quality in general is very low. The 25A fuses indicate it would be around 500w rms at minimum impedance (2 ohms stereo, 4 ohms bridged), but with dual 2's you can't run it at minimum impedance. You'd be stuck with 4 ohm stereo getting you 150-200w rms per sub. Your best bet at a reasonable amount of power and low cost would be a mono amp. At 500-800w rms they're going to be cheaper than a 2 ch. Here are some budget friendly amps that are at least serviceable. A little over-rated, but should give you 250w per sub: [URL="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/viewitem.php?id=33008&SearchClickout"]MB Quart FX1.600 (fx1600) 600W RMS 1-Channel Monoblock Formula[/URL][query_id]=12381919 Also a little over-rated, but in the 350w range per sub: [URL="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_27848_Power-Acoustik-CPT1-2000.html"]Power Acoustik CPT1-2000 Monoblock Car Amplifier[/URL] 400w+ per sub: [URL="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/viewitem.php?id=22707&SearchClickout"]Hifonics HFi1500D (HFi 1500D) Class D Monoblock Car Amplifier/Amp[/URL][query_id]=12381940 You'd wire the subs like this: [URL="http://m.seimg.net/product/img/subwoofer_wiring/2_subs_DVC_2_ohm_mono.jpg"]http://m.seimg.net/product/img/subwoofer_wiring/2_subs_DVC_2_ohm_mono.jpg[/URL] [/QUOTE]
