u needa find out specs about the sub first before u just pick any amp
like minimum find... it's powering handling in watts rms (NOT max rms)
and if it's dual-2ohm or dual-4ohm

i had 2 15s and 12" in the back of my coupe. I had to build each panel of the box and then construct it inside the trunk. it sucked to make it but it got a lot of attention and sounded pretty good but i had no room for anything else.

the subs were rocford punch z series and i have a punch 5002 500wX2 amp, i added the 12 and bridges the amp but it was hard on my alternator an battery

to answer your question id need to know what subs they are

look for an amp that does around 1x (or 2x) 500w rms @ 4ohms... and it should be fine... mono or 2-channel should be fine.. when i say about.. it's best to find one up to 500 but not over so u don't blow it

it was near impossible to get 2 12's in my vert and pull off a custom set up, especially since my amp is 3 foot 4 inches long. The first thing that went through my mind when that trunk popped was *fat bastard voice* "Christ its tiny!"

yep, so i got ther subs installed, me and my buddie did, them....it took us quite a long time...due to lots of minor problems.....like running the wire to the batery of the car...due to there was no hole in the forewall or w/e...so we made one smile.gif. other than that...and losing a few parts, and then having ot go buy new ones...we did fine, subs sound great, and still got half my trunk left
