Default Need help with selecting an amp.!!?

Hello,

I Recently purchased 2 Rockford Fosgate R2SD4-10 subwoofers. I don't know what is the best amplifier for this setup. Please someone help me. I left the link below so you can see the specs.

Thanks.

these subs are shallow mount subs. they wont give you real lows (FR = 38-250 hz with 83 db @ 1watt) as far as an amp, look for a 2 channel 200w-400w amp (true watts not china watts), try to match your RMS from the sub to the amp. here are a few choices.

Nearly all amps will work with a 4ohm load in multiple configurations. Your subs are dual 4ohm, per the link you provided. So each sub will show an ohm rating of either 2ohm or 8ohm depending on how you wire it up.

The Rockford Amp listed above would be more then enough powerwise. May I ask why you went with a shallow sub?

Yes that would probably be the best way to hook them up.
