not at all, it all depends on how low of ohm stability your amp can handle. And then what ohm load you put to it. Your ohm load is determined by how you wire your subwoofers. You could hook a few speakers to a Mono amp if you want if you wire them correctly so they work. Check out this crash corse from our buddys at adire. http://www.adireaudio.com/Files/TechPapers/DualVoiceCoilWiring.pdfor for non-descriptive wiring diagrams check out this one http://www.rockfordfosgate.co.za/rockford2002/tech/wiring/wiring.htm

Stay away from chintzy brands like boss, audiobahn, pyle, lightning audio, etc. These brands have loose quality control standards, and you don't know what you're getting. With your setup, it'll be a smart idea to get (power/gnd, and speaker) wires, a capacitor(eases your alternator's pain), and build. Without a foundation, your system will suffer immensely. Brand names for amps I'd look at are: orion, crossfire, rockford, memphis, and alpine--not necessarrily in that order. I'd say go with a 1200w class D amplifier, because class d is more efficient. Either way, it's all preference(sound quality vs. price), but please do yourself a favor and stay away from boss!!!
I think, I tinker, I play around, I build.
