I have the same amp and was wondering the same thing. I'm thinking it should work just fine

Well. I had a setup with those exact components and it worked well for the money. Just make sure you set your gain properly!

I am having two of these ladies shipped my next week WMD my wife bought the "Boss PH5000D Phantom 5000-watt class D Monoblock" is this amp going to hold up?

Yea it wilk work id recommend getting a bigger amp tho. I got two of these wired down to 1ohm with a planet audio ac5000.1d so they are gettin around 1500rms each at 1ohm and man do they pound

Greg think but it's not the amp it's the box that really makes or break these speakers for me. I have been doing a few different. I put them in a car sub box and they sounded ok with a 300 watt amp but I think a 600 watt amp would be ok as well bit if I had a 600 watt amp I would let you know for sure what they sounded like. They are good speakers for the price I just know yet if I would recommend them to any one. I put subs and amps in people's car as a side job and I still haven't even told anyone I have them yet because I'm not satisfied yet.

The BOSS PH2.1000 is way to much power for those speakers. I suggest looking into a lower wattage BOSS amp so you don't blow them.

Yes it will work but it is not a ideal amplifier for these subwoofers by far. The rms @4 ohms is 250 watts and running at 2 ohms yields 25% less wattage bc of a know internal cooling problem with this unit. You can find more information by looking at some reviews on the boss riot 1110 right here on Amazon. When I set up my system (Rockford 12s wired in parallel @2ohms) the next size up from this but pretty much identical. I went with an alpine mono block 500 running 500 watts rms at 2ohms and it's absolutely killer the clarity and power of these subs is literally amazing http://www.crutchfield.com/mobile/Product/Item/Highlights.aspx?i=500MRPM500&tp=115 Hope this helps, Ryan

I use these with that cheap Lepai amp and they sound good. They seem to be a great quality for the price.

I run these with my existing wire harness in the doors, powered by my Pioneer deck and they sound great. I don't believe an amp for a set at this price would be necessary. I have had these for a little under a year now I think.

I have 2 in my truck on a 2000 watt Brutus an it rocks! I would imagine that they would sound good with any decent 1600 watt D-Class mono amp ... Pionner has one .. Or just search 1600 D-Class mono and check the reviews

I bought a pair for stereo speakers. Used one in one set that I was repairing. Sounded good and they are very inexpensive, yet well made. Don't know about how welll they'd stand up to 500 watts. But in a combo amp, which are usually not huge amps, I'm sure it will work just fine. And youl'll save a few bucks for a case of beer to slowly break in your new speaker(s)! Best of luck and 'Rock On!'

I use a Marantz MM7055 140 watt per channel Amp for these speakers and I think they rock. I can't imagine needing hundreds of watts per channel. If they sound so good with 300 watts per channel hooked up to them, I sure would like to hear it.

I used a boss 4000 watts hits hard for a cheap amp... Always have more power on amp then subs so you can hit hard it wont harm anything. Forget capacitors ... you need deep cycle batteries red optima .. one for alternator and one in trunk .. one amp per 12" .. Dobt forget to wrap ya doors and trunk with sound and heat barriers helps rattle .. Enclosed box best... for deep bass or open box for mid level

Hank 51 and Thomas H. are correct, and I wholeheartedly agree with their comments. I've used mine as well with a high-powered vintage Quad (British manufacturer) amp, and they sound great. Just watch the volume level, as these guys have already stated.

I bought the 1200 watt one for my sub and the 1000 watt for my four 250 w speakers. Now you need to check RMS on both your speakers and the amp...they should match or you will have issues. For me, it matched.

You need at least 1200 rms to power the speakers and they are 600 rms apiece so 400 rms each speaker isn't that bad they should sound nice with your amp. I have 4 of these speakers and they sound amazing

A decent match would be any decent amp that is around 1100w if youre getting two subs then get a 2000w amp. I bought two of these and a Pyle 2000w 2 channel amp and it sounds excellent for the price of it all! You should try to avoid getting an amp that is more powerful than your sub's as it is easier to blow them but you can always tune an amp down

That's exactly the pair I have. I'll get my box specs and post them in a bit. They are a good match for a daily setup. They can be pushed harder but I really like it
