Newbee need help bad

Hello I just bought 2 12" pioneer ts-w306c subs they are 4ohm subs they are 1000w max each and 400w nominal. I need to figure out what mono amp to power them any ideas thinking I need a amp of at least 800rms. also is it possible to make them into 2ohm subs even know they are not dvc.
thanx

Wiring the subs in Parallel will show a 2 ohm load at the amp, and as far as a 800W RMS amp, there are tons of possibilities... what's your budget, and do you have any brand preferences?

Out of those 3, MTX would be my choice... IMHO

you could probably find a good used one..look around...rockford is also good...i like the older models..probably if you could get your hands on a BD1000..its a nice amp..maximum@ 2ohms i think...it would be gr8 for your application...
