Default Enough watts???

Does a JL 500/1 have enough power to push 2 JL 12w6v2's? Someone told me it is, but not enough, since Im using 2 12's thats its like im only getting 250 watts to each sub. I think its wrong, but who knows. Thanks

If all 4 6ohm VC are paralled you have a 1.5ohm load, that amp, if powered right will crank out about 1000 watts, should be ok.

hope this helps. 94
