if that's the old two-channel model, it's a 300.2
that's rated for 75wRMS x 2 @ 4 ohms I believe
300w x 1 @ 4 ohms
email RF's website with the model and ask for a manual.

underpowered.
each type R should get at least 300wRMS or so for good performance.
I've seen them given as much as 600 watts each, but 300 each works very well, so a 600 watt mono amp is good for two type R subs

a JBL BP600.1 would do fine, and it's cheap.

Ok so how would you wire that from the + on Amp to the + on speaker 1 and - from amp to - on speaker 2...and then a wire from + to - speaker to speaker? |

if you had 2 amps that were each rated for a 50 amp fuse, would you just get a 100 amp fuse? or is there an equation to use in order to find out how big of a fuse to get. |

the JBL amp has two sets of speaker terminals.
connect one sub to each set.
done.
for the fuses, yes add the ratings.
two 50A fused amps would need a main line fuse of 100A.
