Ok..so say I want to get 2 subs each 250 watts 500 watts MAX..2 OHMS each..that would mean that I would have 500 watts 1000 watts MAX and 4 OHMS..so the amp I would need to get would have to be 4 OHM stable or 2 depending if i bridge them or not and it would have to be 500 X 2..is this correct?? if not can someone help me?...and also could the amp be a little less power then the subs like 400 or 450 watts in stead of 500?
Thanks.

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking. Are you saying you want around a 500 watt amp or 1000 watt amp? Look at RMS rating of the amp, not peak.

Yes to all...

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
