From what I can find that amp isn't stable at 1.5 ohms but it doesn't matter because one W7 (excluding the 13.5) would be 3 ohms. Just a shot in the dark but I'd say it would put out around 450w @ 3ohms.

I'm not sure. Mine's getting 750 and it doesn't seem like it really WANTS a whole lot more but it would take more if I gave it to it. With 450 your over half of the RMS but that is a hungry speaker. I say try it. If it isn't enough then it should get you by until you can get a bigger amp.

The W7 is one power hungry sub. I don't know if it'd be worth it to get a 12w7 and just put 450rms into it.

That amp is 1 ohm stable... 600 watts would be enough for the 12.

Nope the only option with one of them is 3 ohms. Only the 13.5 is dual voice coil.
::Edit:: I just found the manual for that amp and customsuburb is right, it is 1 ohm stable.
