Look for something thats anywhere from 500-1000w RMS @ 1 ohm.

First you need to know the impedence of your subs and then how they are wired.
the 12 W 3v2 comes with a D2 or D4 or D6 on the end. 300 W rms is recommended, I'd go with 400W rms each.

If you can wire to 1 Ohm, try to find a used Crossfire VR600D

It will be written on it.
If you have to take them out of the box to see, that would be ok.

Do you have and can you use an ohm meter?
