    i like sony's amps..some love them and some hate them..but they've always served me very well..what is the frequency range on those?..also..how many do you have?..are you looking for a specific model number?

          you should be all good with just the wiring kit..just make sure you get one that can handle the power of the amp..the power and ground wires come in difference guage sizes..im not sure about the wiring just cuz i've always had the pros install the stuff i got..but i had a dual 12" setup and thats looks like how they wired it

                JBL 1200, Viper 1200, Orion 1200, are all good choices

                  Cant go wrong with JBL. Ive got a JBL 600.1 pushing two 12" Infinity Perfects. I almost went with the 1200.1 but it pounds with the 600. JBL underrates their amps, the 600.1 really puts out some power. Plus you can find one on ebay for under $100.

                      i can make cars 2-3 cars back mirrors shake. ive got 2 ed 12's and an ed nine.1 amp. but that amp would over power your subs.

                        Please understand that the specs in your first post are off. Although they are corrected in your second post. These subs are not quad coil. They have a single 4 ohm coil. Also, they are not 500WRMS. They are 120WRMS. Just making sure you know for certain. Wouldn't want to see you throw any amp that CAMAROWIDBASS mentioned on there and smoke your new equipment. :( ;)
                        How about keeping it Pioneer ? As far as the 2 ohm 4 ohm thing, just follow the diagram you have posted above and you'll be fine.

                          lol i know youd be shaking everything in a 1/4 mile radius.

                          my buddy has a pioneer 760 watt in his gp it sounds pretty good for what it is. i think it puts 125 rms per chan. and its a 2 channel. i think he payed 100 bucks for it.
