I recentley bought two MTX 8500 series subwoofers they are about 900-1100 watts each. I need to know how to hook up two mono amplifiers, how do i get power to them and how do they hook up to the head unit (remote wire,output and input wires) please don't spare any details. Or what kind of 2 channel amp is out there that handle both the speakers?

The 8500's are either dual 4 ohm coils or single. That's the info we need.

Also - the 10's and 12's are 500w rms, the 15's are 600w.

The most logical way to power them would be with one mono amp that's 1000-1200w at 1 or 2 ohms - depending on whether you have svc's or dvc's.
