i hate to dog on anyones stuff but PA amps are cheap they are rated in a peak to peak power range. wich means basically devide the power in half and that is more like the usable power. and even at that it is based on a perfect 14.4v system with proper reserve power. so basically u would be lucky to push out 500w. with that said the THD is verry high. i think it is probably a decent match for the subs being that they are in a bandpass box so you wont hear the distortion. and audiobahn are on the cheap side too they tealor to looks more than quality to sell product. if u want to get good quality stuff that will last and sound great dont be afraid to spend some money. remember u get what u pay for! look into some JL audio, Kicker, memphis, or tons other good quality brands. stay away from things offered at retail stores go to a car audio shop and look. not tryin to be a dick just givin u my input if u have any ? just ask

That's a Gothic series Power Acoustik. They have been out of production for about 3-5 years now. Its RMS wattage is about 550W with 5% distortion. You can buy them at pawn shops and online for about $200-225. Bang for the buck they are not a bad deal if space is not a issue. Not sure what you intend on doing with the subs but If they work and you have the space I would say to just leave them in the box that they are in. If your going to make a new box for them then you should put them in a sealed box that's 1-1.5 cubic feet per sub. The bigger the better since you will only have about 150-175w of power per sub.
