subwoofer amp

I have 2 10 inch subs not sure the model in a sealed box that was given to me the other day. I need to buy a Sub amp to drive them and im not to experienced when it comes to stereos.. Im not looking for lots of bass but some would be nice. What kind of amp should I be looking for power wise to drive these 2 subs???

you should look more into the subs you have and see what power they can hold. Cause too much is not good and way to little isnt good. At least what brand they are. Anywhere around 300-400 watts peak from an amp is usually good for 2 10's, if they can handle that much. Best place in your case is pawn shops!

If you get the punch amp, look at the P500.2, that's the one I had when I had 10" ps3 in my Mustang, it was a 500rms amp. The key is to get an amp with plenty of power and tune it for the best power useage.

thats the amp my girl has in her civic pushing 3 12's. It hits so hard it pushes the front and back glass out some, i swear one of them are going to pop out or shatter.
