For using the full potentil of this 2ch amp you need only one subwoofer and bridged it in 4ohm will give you 200RMS for one sub only, compare to 100RMS for two subs 1998.5 Toreador Red/Midnight Blue Contour SVT - #5912/6535 - DOB - 05/11/1998 - RU-3530/CTA Intake Pipe MSDS Heaser/Y-Pipe Magnaflow #10435 9mm Ford racing SPEC Stage one/Spec Alum.

The only thing DECENT that BB caries right now is the type R Alpines. Kenwood amps and subs have been pretty bad the last couple of years and this year I think has been their worst yet. Their decks have been pretty decent but their amps/subs = Unless you get the Excelon line. Look, I know your on an extreme budget but there are plenty of high quality alternatives. like I just hooked my Brother-in-law up with a VS12L7 12" kicker L7 loaded enclosure for $242 I got the 4ohm version and rewired it up for a 1 ohm load and a Hifonics Brutus BX1000D 1000x1 RMS 1ohm stable amplifier for $212 How about that? box, amp, sub for under $500 out the door! Now anybody who knows anything about audio knows that this would blow any 2 subs away that you can buy from Best Buy hands down. So please, do a little more research before jumping on the Best Buy/Circuit City band wagon. You will be mucho happier in the long run 2000 SVT Black/Tan #1633/2150 (a few mods) Alpine: CDA-9835, MRV-F540, MRD-M550 PG: TANTRUM-X 6.5 COMP all around. Some people wear Superman pajamas.
