Yeah I have the same question. I heard those subs absolutely tear up the streets! What do you use with that? 0 gauge wire???

What would be an ideal amp? for around 400-500 bucks? (ebay price)

for that much money you could get a serious amp.

you need around a kilowatt of rms power..

are the subs dual 2 ohm or dual 4 ohm

if you really wanna be safe, you can get it from onlinecarstereo.com

and yes, i would reccomend you upgrade to 1/0 gauge.
you can buy some good priced high quality wire from knukonceptz.com
