with 2 dual 6ohm subs, you can either wire them for 1.5ohms or 6ohms. Each sub is 300RMS so you need to find an amp that will either pump out a clean 600RMS at 1ohm or at 6ohm. Since 99.9% of amps will not have a rating for 6ohm, a 1ohm stable amp will be much easier and cheaper to find.

well, you dont have to buy it from the manufacturer (both are the same company, likely the same amp internally) i was looking for ebay links for them and you can get the orion for $215...

what is your budget? its difficult to suggest amps without having an approximate price range

on a MONO amp, there is nothing to bridge. one [-] speaker output and one [+] speaker output...

PERFECT!

600rms for $170.... it would be best to wait for some more input from some of the more experienced guys. im not sure on the quality of Directed amps...

a good place to look is www.onlinecarstereo.com on the left column, select MONO AMPS and look through them, you want to look for an amp that puts out 600+ rms @ 1ohm.
