I'm looking at running 2x pioneer 10" bullets. They are rated at 400watts rms. I want to run them in series and was wondering how much wattage i need from my amp. I currently have a 2ohm stable amp that will put out 2x230watts rms at 2ohms. I'll looking to run it bridged. Is this enough power or do i need more?

Tis all good ppl i have it all figured!!! By running running them in series. (effectively 8ohms). I will get 220watts rms from my amp. And the subs only need 200watts so i'm good to go. Hmmmm i'm going to love this!!!.
