Dont look at max ratings...thats the max thermal rating the sub can take. Look for continious (RMS) ratings....They are usually half of the max rating so for two subs your looking around 500 RMS...Now SEARCH

I talked to a product specialist at JVC and I can get a discount on any amp I want so I am gonna get paid and then go to a local distributor and look at them. Thanks for the advice I will look for one with like 350 RMS watts.
