Hey, ive never done a sound system before, but i have two 12" JL Audio 12W0 8ohm subs. What need know is what kind of amp i would need to run these. Would a JL Audio 250/1 work? Im just a little thrown off by the 8ohm aspect of the subs. And how many channels i would need on the amp if i just wanted to run the subs. If anyone could give me a little info, and help clarify some things for me thatd be great.

4ga wire will be fine with power up to around 1200 watts so if you wanna get a bigger amp in the future you wont have to go threw all the trouble of running new wire and all that you will be fine just to put in the new amp
