Hi, I was just wondering. i have a 380 watt rms sony xs-123p5b subwoofer. the amp i have is a rockford fosgate p200.2 200 watt rms. will the sub sound bad because of the power difference?

yes...the rms power handling isn't the amount of power the sub NEEDS...it is just a maximun continous power handling rating

It will sound bad if you have it in the wrong box and have set the gain and crossover wrong. Go into a local shop and have it looked at.
