the sub has 2 4ohm voice coils. wire the voice coils in paralell to bring the load down to 2 ohms(positive to positive and negative to negative). mono amps handle resistances below 4ohms the best. they are also a lot more efficient than a class a amp so they will have much less strain on your electrical system. jbl makes good amps for the money. that amp is good if you decide to get a better sounding sub down line.
