Answer 1

ALL subs NEED an amp to power them because there are no radios that have the necessary RMS (continuous) wattage to power them-- if you hooked them up to your radio without an amp you would destroy the subs and could also damage the radio

you need to get the correct amp-- it has to have the correct RMS wattage at the correct impedance (ohms) and it also needs to be CEA-compliant which means that its makes or exceeds the advertised RMS wattage with minimum distortion because distortion is the main cause of speaker damage

info needed to PROPERLY match amps and subs

the subs voice coil setup (DVC or SVC)

the subs impedance (ohms)

the final impedance at the amp (how the subs are wired)

the number of subs

the subs RMS (continuous) wattage

or

the model numbers

to power the amp you will need a wiring kit

you need a power wire that goes from the battery to the amp with an in-line fuse and a ground wire that are of the correct size/gauge, here is a link to help you with that http://www.crutchfield.com/learn/learnin...

you also need a remote wire that goes form the radio to the amp that tells the amp when to turn on

and also RCA cables that run from the radio to the amp that sends the audio signal from the radio to the amp then to the subs
