Sealed box if your looking for sq. As for connecting to an amp go bridged but you will only get 1/2 off the rms power from the amp. This is because you are using an 8ohm woofer. You would need 2 8ohm subs to get the full rms @ 4ohm's. Hope this helps

you would need an amp that makes alot of power at 4 ohm,     you get a second 8 ohm sub wire them in series and then bridge at the amp

Look for a 2 channel amp that outputs 300 watts continuous at 4 ohms. If you wired your sub to this amp it would give the sub 150 watts continuous.
