Answer (1): Yes You Can Use Those Sony Amps But You Can Only Use One Not Both. If You Use One Of Those Amps You Will Have To Turn It Down So You Dont Blow Your Sub Because The Amp Has More Power. Also Focus On Rms Not Peak! Peak Doesnt Mean Anything Just Picture It Not There @ All. Rms Counts! The More Rms The Better!! But If You Want Kick A** Amp That Will Fullly Push That One Sub To The Limit For Under 150 Check This Out!!

The Amp Is CEA-2006 Compliant So It Really Puts Out That Amount Of Wattage!! You Only Need 250 Rms & This Amps Has 300 Rms So If You Get This Amp You Will Have To Turn It Down So You Dont Blow Your Sub.

Answer (2): Bascially All You Need Is A Amp Kit If You Get The Amp I Listed Above I Can Get You A`Amp Kit For Cheap. The Amp I Showed You Says 4- Guage Or 8-Guage Wire Recommended I Dont Know Which Guage Wire You Want So Im Putting Both On Here. (I Personally Would Go With The 4-Guage Kit)
