Welcome.

You want to look at getting a Monoblock Class D Amp (designed for powering subwoofers) that will do between 500rms - 800rms @ 2 ohm load

Budget for your new amp, I am sitting on some that I am going to let go a little lower priced than normal.

Just curious, what kind of price are you talking about that is a "little lower priced than normal"?

I have some stock to get moved. Some of it is priced below normal dealer cost, some of it just has to go, others well, deals need to be done while I am am not at my business. (I am in Whistler as part of the Olympic Security Contingent).

there are plenty of shops in your area that could easily help you out, you should be able to get an amp locally for 250-300 that will easily power the box you have. buying locally is beneficial if you ever have an issue where the amp needs to be warrantied etc......this is agood time of year to buy as just about every car audio retailer has amps that are either discontinued or soon to be and that would mean savings to you
