What is the RMS rating on the sub?

So your sub is rated at 400 watts RMS and you have two amps, a 460 watt, and a 600 watt.

The sub is also 3.4 ohm and not 4, so you can expect a little more output.

So what amp do you think is the right one to use?

One more question. What type of box do you plan on putting the sub in?
