Ok. I searched and found some useful info. I have 2 RE audio 12inch subs. From what ive read, i should use a sealed box because they are pretty much an all around enclosure (theyre good at all frequencies). My question is what kind of amps should i be looking for? Heres the specs of my subs

RE series
Electrical Q Value -Qes: 0.42
Mechanical Q Value -Qms: 4.27
Total Speaker Q Value -Qts: 0.38
Free Air Resonance -Fs: 20.0 Hz
Equivalent Compliance -Vas: 182 liters
One-Way, Linear Excursion -Xmax: 12 mm
Efficiency -SPL 1W/1m: 87.3 dB SPL
Effective Piston Area -Sd: 500 cm^2
DC Resistance -Re: 3.2 ohm
Nominal Impedance -Znom: Dual 4 ohm
Thermal Power Handling -Pe: 175 W
Force Factor -Bl: 15.4
These subs handle 250/175 [PEAK/RMS]. Im not looking for concrete breaking bass. Im just want something that sounds sweet and can be heard by people outside my car.
Heres my headunit too if it helps...
