what are the rms and peak wattage on those subs?

Hey Elevate,
Assuming they are standard Kicker Comp single 4ohm voice coils, they are rated at 250 rms. To get the most power out of them I would bridge them together to drop them down to 2ohm and run a 500rms mono block amp @ 2ohm. If you have the money I would recommend going with something like a 700-1000 watt mono and running the amp at low power. This will be beneficial in a few ways: 1. Lower power means less heat, which gives you less interference in the line and better sound quality. 2. The amp will last longer also if you do upgrade you only need to upgrade the subs and keep the amp.

Hope this helps, I would recommend Alpine amps. Their 500mono would be perfect for your subs, and not too pricy. http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/mrp-m500/

wow thanks for taking the time to give me some info Flypinoy457.
so i am definitely going to get the amp around 700, and keeping the amp at low power.
now another question would be, where would i get them installed?, at a regular stereo shop. or best buy. haha but i dont know if they would know anything about bridging them together..what do you think?
o and they are 150rms not 250** and 300 peak.
