Need Help Finding an Amp
Whichever amp you get, try to use it's full potential. You have (2) dual 4ohm subwoofers, so your amp would run 4ohms or 1ohm. First of all you're much better off running more than enough power instead of less because most people have a tendancy of cranking the $%@& out of their gain, bass boost, and HU bass volume to compensate for lack of power, and running more than enough power you can just turn down the gain. Second, I would get a 2 channel amp that can be run bridged, or a mono channel amp that will run 1ohm stable. If you get either of those, I wouldn't hook up the Audiobahns (if you don't sell them) because adding them you'd more than likely wire them at a higher resistance, thus lowering the amount of power, and possibly reducing the amount of bass. All the amps you listed are over-rated in the sense they say 2200 watts but only run maybe 900Wx1. The 900Wrms sound more realistic, just don't be fooled by their four-digit ratings. By the way, if I had a choice amongst the ones you listed, I'd go for the Power Acoustik OVN2-2200 only because it's inexpensive but will push your subs just fine.
