It worked for me, and I think that the subs are AWESOME!, but the amp will not be near enough power to push them. But for what your wanting, I think it would be alright.

doesn`t seem like to bad of a price considering it is amp and subs have heard of infinty many times before they are quality subs everyone I know with infinity has the higher end subs like the kappa or kappa perfect should produce a good sound though

Referring to the Kappa Perfect subs, they are downright bada**. I've seen one 12" hit 146 dB's. Alot of SQ competitors use them also.

Kappa Perfect is a higher quality so to speak sub make by Infinity. Mostly used for SPL. Could also however, be used for SQ. I would go ahead and get the Kappa Perfects, much better sound IMO.

I would go with a Mono block Memphis or Autotek. They are kinda on the expensive side but produces the best quality sound you'll ever hear. Will also last forever. As for the wattage I would say about 1500.

Infinty's are a really good brand. I don't know about the legacy amp, but the infinty's are really cool.

I had that Legacy amp, ran two Alpine R's dual 4's on it bridged. Never went into protection mode, never turned off, and power was always up. Could not barely move the subs but still never got overloaded @ 1 ohm when its only 2 ohm stable.

Not high end, but a good amp for the $70.
