Are those the specs for both subs, or each one? IF each look for an amp that is rated at 600 watts rms and is stable @ 2ohms. Do you have any amps in mind?

I just noticed you have built in crossover in your specs, is there a crossover in the box?

From what I am seeing you'll have to run in stereo @ 170x2 @ 4ohms. If your speacs are for both subs ie they are svc w/4ohm voice coils (each) yet they are a combined wattage of 600 rms?
