I just bought 2 jl audio w3 (v2 i think) subs. The person i bought them from was running a 1500 watt memphis amp on them. According to the jl website the ideal RMS is 250 watts. I was wondering if I could double the RMS since I have 2 subs. I was also wondering about the ohms of the subs. I think the website says they can run at both 2 and 4 ohms but if someone could clairify that it would be great. Thanks

yes you want 250w each so 500 watts total
you need to look at the subs to figure out what the impedance is for each one.
it should be printed on the back of the sub's magnet or at the terminals.
