Basic Amp Question
depending on the size of the sub, the enclosure as well as what the "rms" rating is on the subs you should base your answer.
you want to go for an amp that can at least deliver how much power the sub would operate at rms. that will allow your sub to basically operate at peak performance without sacrificing distortion. if you put too much power in you may blow the sub and cause distoration, put too little power and you won't hear too much and when you turn it up it'll distort. so if you shoot for the rms rating of the sub, you'll definetly have a good system.

JL has a chart on their website documenting how much minimum power and maximum power you should pump into their subs,
notice how they mention rms power just like i mentioned above in my previous post
the chart is at

if the chart is hard to see, you can download a high res version here:
