It depends on efficiency of subs you are going to get and how many you are getting.

The specs of the sub(s) will determine how much power you'll need.... Also, a 100 watt amp from company A can differ greatly from company B...

Yeah and don't fall for those generic amps that claim to push out "1500Watts" etc...When it comes to amps, quality, not quantity
