something that produces 700-800wrms. most ppls will say get a 600wrms amp although it depends on how good you are at setting up your system. as long as you dont slap your gains on full then youll be fine.

its best to have a slightly more powerful amp (for headroom). one thing to remember is your subs will hardly ever see 600w of power when listening to music. this means you can hook up a more powerful amp and still not have to worry about damaging your subs

this seems like a nice amp for the money, although if you willing to spend more then the possibilities are endless :D

Do you know the impedance of the subs?

An amp that does about 600w RMS at 2ohms will be fine then.

All you have to do then is wire the subs to show 2 ohm :D
