Can I power 2 15" 1200 watt subs with a 300 Watt Amp?

Question:
I got 2 Boss 15'' subs with RMS 700-1200 watts, and I guess I cheaped out and got a 300 watt Bazooka amp. Will it work? And if not, what do I need. ( Im on a VERY tight budget). Thanks.

What size amplifier will work well with (4) 4-ohm 10" speakers??

it will work, but it wont sound very good. you would be better running only one speaker if you want to keep the speaker and amp combo you have. you wont blow the amp or anything, but it may not hit hard at all or crackle if you run both. one sub, bridged, would sound the best, and be easier to mount (2 15's are hard to fit in most cars).

i just get a 1200 watt american pro to push 2 pioneer 1000 watt 12",im getting distortion out of my subs ?

It will work but you will not get anywhere near the power you could achieve with a better amp. you will need an amp kit. 8-gauge will do and ofcourse you will need a good box

Why is my MTX 15" Thunder 9500 making funny noises?

Boss is about the cheapest subs known to man not to mention the worst sounding subs that ive ever heard, and bazooka is also a very poor brand, obviously you are into heavy bass to have 15 inch subs if i were you id sell those subs, buy 2 12 inch subs of a better name such as mtx 8500 series or jl audio, boston acoustics, kicker L7 squares, and purchase another amp identical to the one you have and put an amp per sub then you will have something, i installed 6 kicker L7 with 1400 watts per pair in a low rider today, i have 12 jl w6 12's with 6 jl 1000/1's in an explorer, i won the spring break nationals IASCA 1441 and up division with 12 15 inch mtx subs so i do this sort of thing alot, as far as your question yes it will work , but you do get what you pay for, you can make 1 strong 12 3 times as loud so think about it

What kind of enclosure should I get?

It should work still but it wont push out all the watts!! and you may blow the amp!

What does it technically mean when your car speakers are "blown"?

A 300 watt amp is suitable for a single 8 or 10. Why dont you get a good single 12 and decent 500W amp. That setup would give better bass than your current system.

Boss and Bazooka are both very cheap products with poor quality.

You will also need a amp wiring kit and interconnects. That will set you back at least a $150
