If you've got 2 of them at 300 rms get a mon amp that puts out 300rms at 2 ohms and wire the subs in parallel. That's if total rms is 300 *150 rms each* If 300 rms each then obviously go get a mono amp that puts out 600 rms at 2 ohms.

Depends.

If you get an amp that's 1ohm stable, wire the coils in parallel and bridge a 2chan amp.

Or, if you get an amp that's 2ohm stable, either get a mono amp as stated above, or get a 4 chan and bridge each set of 2 channels to each sub.
