i would recommend any a Class D sub amp…they dont suck all the power like a normal amp does…i was always a fan of MTX but thats me…i have a small MTX Class D amp running one 10 and it can prolly run another one with no issues…as far as the componnent speakers a nice alpine 4 channel amp or again i ❤ MTX stuff…i am sure Funky can help u out a little more…but like i said i never has issues with mtx…Rainbow Tint also has good deals on crossfire stuff if ur on a tight budget ---

I have a Xtant 4 channel that I’ve been trying to unload for awhile. I got tiried of the car audio stuff a couple years ago. I’ll let it go for $200. I believe it was at least 3 times that new. I can get you pics if interested. Its an Xtant 404m amp. ---

Well those subs should be dual 4 ohms, (the ones @ CC are)finding a mono block that runs 1 ohm stable would be great because you could run the subs in parallel off the mono block. You would get the most outta the amp and subs but heat is a factor. Well you get a 2 channel and run two 4ohm lines outta the box one for each sub, its a lil safer on the amp. Or get a Costly high powered 4 channel thats bridgeable and run each sub outta the box at 4 ohms and bridge the front and rear channels…not recommended. MTX and Audiobling i mean audiobahn actully make good yet afforable mono blocks that run 1 ohm. Also check out Directed electronics amps. Great amps i was an MTX fan till i got my hands on Directed amps. Same people who make the viper car alarm line. And BTW Xtant is MTX, they come off the same production line. 🙂 ---
