what exact amp would push 2 of these good?

I would say 2000 watt max, but for 2 of these subs I would say a 1200-1500 would be perfect.

Hay i have a Hifonic Brutus Mono 2000 watt 4 channel amp. Pushing my 2 (12" kickers) great power feeding my subs.

should be powerful enough to drive 2 kicker sub's...not recommended for power hungry sub like sundown and focal or alpine type r's

Not enough info here, but I would bridge two channels to one of those subs. This amp would probably handle both of them, but not two amps and speakers.

Yea it wilk work id recommend getting a bigger amp tho. I got two of these wired down to 1ohm with a planet audio ac5000.1d so they are gettin around 1500rms each at 1ohm and man do they pound

There only 1 amp. Aside from that these are junk, I would recommend checking 2mcctv they are cheaper and higher quality then anything I ever got from Amazon.

And ya like Ray said.... If you're getting two pairs, you should get a 4 ch amp. If only one pair, a 2 ch will be fine.

The best amp wattage would be right around 3200 cause they peek at 1600 each speaker. I made the mistake of only getting a 1800 watt kenwood which is a good amp just not enough power. No matter what they will bump though

You will need two Amps then. 1 won't be hitting them that hard. 4 to 1 amp for a 1200 watt amp. If you get a bigger amp you will need to buy a compositor and much more and bigger wire.

Save your money and buy a real amp, planet audio is garbage and will push no where near 4000 watts. If you are going to run a 2 ohm final load, look in to something like a Kicker ZX1500 amp. This amp will push over 1500 true watts at 2 ohm, that would be over 750 to each sub, plenty of power for these. My Kicker ZX1500 came with a birth sheet with a factory tested 1789 watts. You can pick up one of these amps reasonable on ebay if you shop around. I paid $250 for mine used but was in new condition.

I would keep at 2ohm. I have 2 12's running at 2ohm. This amp lies about the power it has.

Hi, No this amp is meant more for pushing a pair of floor monitors or a pair of 8 or 10 inch mains.

I would consider this amp underpowered for your task. Look at its rms power and you should understand why.

Hooked up at 2 ohms this amp would definitely run them, at 4 it powers my 2 15" pioneers no problem at 700 each

Don't expect the amp to push the two subs to full potential... You're better off with a 4000w amp bridged and just power down to get good quality sound and some good thumpin power

The amp choice is really up to you and how many subs and how are you going to wire them up. I have one 12" Type R 4ohm sub wired to 2ohm. Using a Hifonics Zeus 1800 watt mono amp. Assuming that the amp is "actually" capable of pushing 1800w at 1ohm. It should be pushing 900w to the Type R. It sounds amazing in the trunk of my 96 Impala SS. Go with the 4ohm sub if youre going to use two subs, wire them down to 2ohm and find an amp capable of pushing a solid 2000w. Amps will state total power at 1ohm, 2ohm will be half that.

It depends on what kind of amp it is and what kind of subs your pushing on with it

It would power those no problem. I run 2 400watt 12" with mine and volume notch 2 blasts them things. Anyways those are 1400 peak right? So that's 2800 peak for both sides which should be right where you want to be. The amp is actually 2 1500 watt amps making 3000 total amps.
