    Jus go to walmart and get the dual 400 watt amp I have it for my subs and it works great. I love it. And its only 50 bucks save you a lot of money

    First off, you cannot get a 2 ohm load, with 2 - 2 ohm speakers... Either series=4 ohms, or parallel=1 ohm.. You can find most amps can handle a 4 ohm load, quite easily. That's the route you should go, as 1 ohm stable amps are expensive. Plus they take more power to run, bigger wire, a cap/extra battery etc. to run.

    Second, a 400 watt amp, for $50 isn't actually a 400 watt amp.. Think either a buck a watt, or add the fuses up. 100W/10A fuse is a decent reference..

    Good Luck!
