Question

I want to buy to 12' subwoofers

Answer 1

It's fairly low power for subs, but it will work well enough if you pick the right subs. I would suggest looking for 8-ohm subwoofers. If you get two 8-ohm subs, you can wire them in parallel for a combined 4-ohm load. With this, you can bridge the amp so that each sub gets 100 watts RMS.

If you buy the more common 4-ohm subs, you won't be able to connect them to the amplifier in bridged mode, and you'll end up with less power output.

Here's an example of an 8-ohm sub that would probably work well with your amp: http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/products/product_details.asp?cat_id=4&series_id=31&family_id=9&item_id=108271&locale=en_US&p_status=
