Answer 1

The best way to do this is to wire your two subs into a series to get a 4 ohm load, then you need to get an amp that can do 900 watts rms at four ohms. In either bridge mode with a 2 channel or in mono with a single channel. Or you could get an amp that can do 450 watts per channel in stereo mode at 2 ohms. for a good example of an good amp to power these subs with click link below.

By the way this amp is rated at 1000 watts at 4 ohms, you will be running 50 watts rms over your subs rating but you will be just fine, mtx builds their subs to exceed their actual ratings.

Answer 2

if its a singal 2 ohm connection then the box is wired internally in parallel so you need either a 2 channel amp bridged at 2 ohms in the 900 watt range or a 1 channel amp that is 900 watts at 2 ohms. checkout caraudiodeals.com they have an audiobahn a8000v for $150
