300W RMS won't give you SPL contest winning ability, but it should do rather nicely!

Especially if you have a correctly tuned, ported enclosure to put it in and feed it sufficient power. I'd recommend an amp capable of delivering at least 400W RMS into whatever load that 300W is quoted at. (If your sub's spec sheet says 300W @ 4 ohms, then get an amp capable of 400W @ 4 ohms) Just DON'T get an amp that's less powerful than the speaker. It will have to work too hard, thereby creating far too much distortion, and distortion is the enemy of ANY speaker.

As for what kind of amp - that's a personal preference thing. I'd personally recommend staying with a "big name" though. (Kicker, Alpine, Sony, etc.)

  1. Distortion does not kill speakers.
  2. Heat in voice coil and over powering kills speakers
  3. You can play a speaker in a constant state of distortion and will not kill it. But constant clipping of amp will kill the amp.
