Is that the 12d 2 ohm 1200 watt rms sub? Also what is your budget for amp(s)?

yes they are the 12d ohm 1200 watt rms models and the budget is not really a problem also what is the best way to go about wireing the subs i currently have them + to + and - to - at the terminals and then each sub bridged on the 4 channel amp down to two channels is this the best setup ? thanks

You could look into a JBL BL1200.1. It will run 1200 Watts RMS at 1 ohm or 2 ohms. That would be 600 watts RMS per sub, which is what they are rated at.

I agree the JBL would be great but I am also quite attached to the Lightning Audio amps. As long as I have been using them they have powered all my subs to the max.
