The P2s - are they DVC or SVC? What is the specs on 'em? RMS numbers?

well......that bites.

They are DVC 4 ohm subs. Which means when they are hooked up together they will produce either a 1ohm load or a 4 ohm load. Not the typical 2ohm that you would normally see.

to get the most out of the setup and this is what i've seen Joe recommend many times - a 1000 watt amp.

Now that is what he says to really get that setup to pound. You could get away with a smaller amp and probably still be happy.
