I would take a look at the xtant A6001T or the jbl 600.1. Both are very good quality amp and will cost about the same. The jbl will proably cost you less but the xtant has a few more features compared to the jbl. If your going sealed I would get whatever amp is cheaper. If you are thinking about going ported later on get the xtant. Check out ebay for both amps and you can get both for under 300.00 bucks. You may also want to check out the kicker kx600.1 which would be on the same level as the xtant. So whichever of those amps you can get cheaper with the sealed box will work for ya.

Well since they are svc 4 ohm if the amp has 2 speaker inputs you would wire one sub to the left channel and one to the right channel. If they only have one speaker input you would still connect speaker wire to the positive and negative of each speaker then combine the negative and positive to one pair of speaker wire and run it to the amp.

Everything that ive heard about jbl is good reviews and solid amps. I wouldnt have a problem running any of those amps that I stated. I know alot of people who run jbl amps with no problems what so ever.

thanks for the help davids2004.

I just wanted to make sure before I go ahead and buy anything, I've heard that the total harmonic distortion on the jbl amps would be a noticable difference because it's 1.0%.. anyone know about this?
