refurb amps are fine as long as they are from a reputable source. How much power do these woofers want? do you know?

the subs you have require 400 watts rms/800 watts max.  their dual voice coil so you can run a 1 ohm mono load or a 4 ohm mono load.  any 400 watt 2 channel amp would be good for the subs as long as the enclosure is anywhere between 1 cubic foot to 1.25 cubic foot.  i recommend a kicker KX350.2 for the two subs.  that should be suffient power with little distortion.  add a good radio with a high voltage sub preout and your subs will run for a long time as long as you "tune" the amp correctly.  if your looking for something inexpensive to run the subs, go after a power accoustik 800 watt max 2-channel amp but make sure the box you have is a sealed box because the amp is a bit "dirty" and will cause the subs to distort in a vented/ported box.

ok will the kicker kx350.2 have enuff power to make them pound ?? and what about the next size up in kicker what would the model number be and would it be over kill or still not quite good enuff ?? and when you say a good head unit would a pioneer 7700 or 5900 be good enuff and which one would be better ?? i would like to have these subs in a ported box .. gives them that boomy sound ...

would a kicker kx450.2 be too much for these two speakers?
