OK 800x2 peak is like 400 x2 RMS on a good amp. I would say that you wouldn not be getting any more then 300 rms when bridged. It should be fine with those subs. now if you had a US amps or Arc Audio,Tru Tech,Orion HCCA,PPI Art series,JL,Eclipse. I would say no you are going to blow your subs up but with that amp it should be fine.
