Now how many watts RMS am i looking for? Theres only 1 connection on my box, so say i have a2 channel amp, 400RMS bridged, does that mean each sub will put out 400RMS or each sub 200RMS? What RMS range should i be looking into? And since there is only 1 connection on the box, does tht mean its basically 1 channel, thats why mono amp would be sufficent?
Thanks alot,

You will probably want to look for about 450-600 watts RMS. I really wouldnt push those too hard. Stay on the low side of things.
If an amp says 400rms Bridged, then each sub will get 200 rms...the power gets divided.
The 1 connection on the box means that the subs are wired together in either series or parallel. You COULD run the subs in stereo, but they sound much better played in MONO configuration. So basically, you only need one set of outputs. Look for a decent 2 channel amp, that puts out about 500rms bridged, or a good mono amp that puts out the same. If they are decent quality, they should be about the same price.
