buy a single amp mate
and run your front comps off it as well easyier
is a hefty sub tho that is mate, alternatively and probs cheaper buy a less power drawing sub, and a 4 channel amp

all of the above amplifiers will power the subs, but in order to power them to their full potential then your gonna need a whoppin great big thing! roughly an amp which allows about 1500W RMS, that should get those to bad boys thumpin'!
