will this amp bring out full power for these subs?

nobody ever knows, you aren't alone...

to answer your question:
I wouldn't advise that amp with those subs unless you could get the subs in a different impedance besides dual 2 ohm. You will only be able to wire it to that amp for 150w to each sub, which probably won't be enough for most people's liking. 300-400 range would be ideal per sub.

Look in the FAQ section for help with ohms and other questions you may have.

bcae1.com will tell you all u need to know. as for the amp and sub it will work you wire the sub to 4 ohm and your amp will produce 600 watts a lil more than you need but you should be ok if you are some what careful

Are you planning on running 2 subs? If so...http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/2424 that will do exactly what you need, plus it's class D. If that's the case you'd wire the subs in parallel/series config to yield a 2ohm load on your amp.

That's the same sub just in a different coil config. It offers no benifit over the other one other than differnet wiring possibilities. You can wire the DVC 2ohm sub at either 1 or 4 ohms where as the dual 4 can be wired at either 2 or 8ohms assuming you're using a single sub.

For that amp, yea those would be better to buy. That way you will be able to get 300 to each sub, which will allow them to play close to their best.

^yes i am going to buy 2 subs.
