Sub and Amp Combination

Sub and Amp Combination
Trying to figure out if my amp(currently own) will run two subs(looking to buy). I know the amp is a little underpowered in this situation, but I don't know for sure.
Amp: Pioneer GM-7300M mono amplifier
•250 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms (360 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms)
Subs: JL Audio 10W1v2-4
•10" 4-ohm subwoofer
•power range: 50-300 watts RMS
•peak power handling: 600 watts
I had planned on running the subs parallel to knock the ohms down from 4 to 2. Is the amp way too underpowered to run both of these subs?
Thanks!

It will work. Just keep in mind that distortion is what messes up speakers more than anything. So dont expect these to be as loud as a pair of 15s or something crazy. And if you need to you can always swap out subs later.
Or u could look at a different pair of subs, unless you have your heart set on the JLs.

Wire the subs to a 2 ohm configuration. The amps is plenty you say the subs only handle 300 watts so becareful not to blow the speakers. You will have 360 watts @ 2ohms RMS, as said before distortion kills...
