Re: what kinda amp do i need
Is that 200 watts RMS or Max? If it's RMS then just bridge the amp. You do that by hooking your subs posative lead to the amps Left Pos. and the subs negative lead to the amps Right Neg. That will push the holy livin' crap out of them. Turn your gain to about half or so on your amp too, you don't want to fry anything.

If your lookin for a little bit of bass thats fine, but if you want them to pound youll need a little more amp

Re: what kinda amp do i need
you dont HAVE to get a mono amp, even though thats what i use
, but just because they are very good, dosent mean you need one. just wanted to point that out.

well its easier if you dont want to worry about bridging and whatnot.. its easier to get a mono amp imo because you just hook em right up

If I were you I would try selling the Jensen amp and getting a punch P550.2 or something similar... Just keep in mind that under powering a sub kills them, so whatever the min. power rating is you generally want to double it to be in the safe range...
