yea it's sony. 15 years ago that meant something good :lol
anyways after much searching and being impressed by my current amps (a pair of Mobile ES units) I was thinking about getting 2 of thee class D Sony amps to push the subs
the subs are dual 4 ohm coil and take 1200 watts so 1 of these pentagons can push each sub to 900 RMS and best of all for like $350 I can get both of them new
If anyone has a better suggestion I'm all earz

900x1RMS @ 2 ohms
Features
Class D P5 Amplifiers: The XM-D1000P5 amplifier is a 5-sided Class D mono block amp, designed to complement the Sony P5 subwoofer line. Class D technology is a method to convert and amplify music signals with MOSFETs to high-speed pulse signals. Class D amps feature high efficiency and low heat generation.
Protection Circuitry: This amplifier has 3-way protection circuitry which protects the amplifier in the following cases:
Thermal: shuts off the amp when the operating temperature is too high
Short circuit: shuts off the amp when the speaker outputs are short-circuited
DC Offset: shuts off the amp when the speaker wires or ground lead is not securely connected, generating direct current
Power/Protector LED: The amplifier has an LED on the top panel which glows green when operating normally, and changes to red when the protection circuit is activated.
Low-pass Crossover: The XM-D1000P5 is equipped with a low-pass crossover, continuously variable from 50-300Hz, with a slope of 12dB/octave. It is constantly activated and cannot be switched off.
Low Boost: You can add up to 10dB of bass boost centered at 40Hz.
Preamp Output: This amplifier includes a stereo preamp output, which allows you to send an unfiltered signal to another amplifier.
Speaker-level Input Harness: The amp comes with a speaker-level input harness with a 4-pin Molex plug on one end. This allows you to more easily connect this amplifier to a factory radio or a receiver without preamp outputs.
Protection Cap: The XM-D1000P5 comes with a rubber protection cap that fits over the wire terminal strip, helping to prevent accidental short circuiting.
Inputs and Outputs
Front Center of Amplifier:
+12V (power): screw terminal (terminal is 0.54" wide)
GND (ground): screw terminal (terminal is 0.54" wide)
REM (remote turn-on): screw terminal (terminal is 0.34" wide)
Speaker Outputs: 2 pairs of screw terminals (each terminal is 0.34" wide) Note: Although there are two sets of speaker terminals, they are not stereo outputs, but summed (L+R) mono. The speaker outputs are internally wired in parallel, so if you connect two 4-ohm speakers to the amp, the amplifier will "see" a 2-ohm load.
Front Right of Amplifier:
Line-In: RCA stereo jacks
Line-Out: RCA stereo jacks
High Level Input: a 4-pin input for use with the included speaker-level input harness
Specifications
RMS Power Output:
500 watts x 1 into 4 ohms (20Hz to 300Hz, 0.2% THD)
900 watts x 1 into 2 ohms (20Hz to 300Hz, 0.6% THD)
Maximum Power Output:
1000 watts x 1 into 4 ohms
1600 watts x 1 into 2 ohms
Wiring Recommendation
Amplifier Wiring: This amplifier uses three 40-amp fuses, so its total fuse rating is 120 amps, however Sony recommends using a 150-amp fuse at the battery. Since pre-packaged amplifier wiring kits do not normally have 150-amp fuses, you will need to purchase all of the necessary wiring items separately, or purchase a 4-gauge amplifier wiring kit and replace the fuse and fuse holder in the kit with a 150-amp ANL fuse and ANL fuse holder. The items needed to wire this amplifier include:
One ANL wafer-style fuse holder
One 150 amp ANL wafer fuse
Power cable--4 gauge minimum (to connect the battery to the fuse holder and the fuse holder to the amplifier)
Ground cable--4 gauge minimum
2 power rings
Remote turn-on cable (speaker wire can be used as remote turn-on cable)
One set of stereo RCA patch cables
