Earthquake. I used to have a friend that ran a set of those way back in 1998.

Its only 2 channel output, so use 1 sub and bridge the amp. It says on the page 200 RMS @ 4 Ohm for that 1 channel, which will be good enough to drive a simple subwoofer like...

You know what, if I say it I will get shot on these boards, and by my friends.... But if you are a total newbie, and just want something like I first did, just drop by Futureshop / 2001AV / BestBuy, and a get what I like to call a "System in a Can". They range from 130 and up, and inculde a sub and the box. Virtually just as easy as plugging a USB Mouse into the computer.

Personally, if you have a bit of cash around, sell the amp again on EBay, and stop by one of the many shops that are listed around these boards, and for probably about 400 or 500, can get a Decent Amp/Sub(s).

can it goes 150w MAX x2??
since it's a 300w amp

also, does ported box make big different than a sealed?
what about a dual sealed and 2 single seal? any different?
Always go by RMS ratings, not max.
