Nice amps but they will kill them speakers that low. Need better speakers or a lower amp rating. And aznboi3644 is right it is either WATTS (which is peak power) or RMS (Continues power) Can't be both

if you want to get technical, puremex is incorrect about subs putting out power, but he is correct on the verbage of WATTS RMS.

how many watts constant power can the subs handle? 380 watts RMS(constant) it would not make sense otherwise. 380(what)RMS
