Re: what amp for these? (deeweezy187)

Hey that link to the subs is a little sketchy. It gives no peak wattage rating for the subs and I cant decifer whether the impedence on those babies are 2 ohms or 4 ohms. So... ill go with what info they do have. I would buy a mono amp and bridge the two subs in parallel to reduce the load. By doing so im guessing due to the specs that the amp will see a 2 ohm load. Ao buy a mono amplifier that can handle a 2 ohm load and put out at very very least 350 watts of power.
