any kind of speakers actually, but make sure the speakers can take in the amount of watts they advertise. if you have 2 subs, im guessing 4 ohm subs, you possibly could have wired them in parallel giving you a one ohm load therefore all 1600 watts went into those speakers ultimately blowing them out. heres what you should do, if your blowing up subs constantly get two 4 ohm subs and wire them in parallel each so they receive a 2 ohm load, therefore roughly 1200 watts will be going into the subs, about 600 watts each sub this amount of power would be good for some 15 inch subs rated at 500 watts rms. if you have smaller speaker like 12s, 4 ohm, you can wire them at 2 ohms but if your scared of blowing them out then wiring in series is always an option. heres what I recommend, get 2 15s kicker CVR they are the greatest beginner subs out there. if you already have this amp then your golden, wire those speakers up at 2 ohms with this amp, adjust your gains until you get your desired sound with no distortion whatsoever and you'll be good.

I have mine hooked up to 1 SA4 12 by sundown tuned to. 35h in a 2 cubic foot box an it BEATS!!!!!!!!!! I think as far as watts go they may b a little over rated, but the quality of the BRX series I'm very happy with ther a great amp for the money I even have the 640 as well. I'm pushing 4 6.5 alpines an 2 tweets with it an have n no trouble what's so ever with over heating are anything like that. I will tell u this if money is the issue u can go with a crunch amp they are made by the same company

I purchased the "Dual LU43PB" indoor/outdoor speakers to go with this amp. They work well and relatively inexpensive. They are currently available at Amazon for the price of $38.85. The 40 watts is ample to fill the room with audio without breaking the windows. Hope this info is some help. Les----

These speakers need an amplifier. I use them with the Audiosource Amp100 (amzn.com/B00026BQJ6), but you could probably use a smaller one like the Lepai Tripath LP-2020A+ (amzn.com/B00C2P61FO)

Any amp under 2000 watts will work great. I have a 250 tma pushing my two and they sound awsome. Either 2 or 4 ohm will work just depends on what u like be careful.

I am not a big expert on amps or speakers. I can tell you that I use four Sony Bookshelf speakers which work just fine. See Sony SS-B1000 5-1/4-Inch Bookshelf Speakers (Pair)

I personally use a behringer 4,000 it works great i recommend these speakers! I'm sure with any other amp they will work as great!

Kevin, I could not give you a professional opinion on that question because I've made comparison to my Yamaha speakers using a 450 watt amp. I have a 2000 watt VocoPro amp that I may test with them this weekend to give you an ideal of how I think they sound. Is that okay?

You need at least 1200 rms to power the speakers and they are 600 rms apiece so 400 rms each speaker isn't that bad they should sound nice with your amp. I have 4 of these speakers and they sound amazing

I used a stupid-cheap Boss 1100w amp. Had a billion great reviews. Sounds fantastic.

If you want a 2.1 setup, the best answer is to buy another amp with either line level out or a subwoofer line out. For a solution though, you could run the speakers in a series (google how) and buy a subwoofer with speaker level inputs (though I don't recommend this). However, if you've bought this amp and want more bass just buy a set of speakers with decent woofers that are easily powered (good 2.0 sounds better than 2.1). I had this running a set of Large Advents and it sounded beautifully.

There are numerous, very good small amps Out There: from Pig Nose to - the one I own - a Schiffler. A speaker will not be a good choice - choose amplification,.

You need an amp that has a phono pre-amp (phono puts out less output than digital so it needs to be boosted before it's amplified. And, of course, you'll need speakers.

need an amp of some sort. Be careful - not "these!" Unless things have changed this is not for a pair. When I purchased it was for one speaker only. I just read the other guys response and I have no idea what he is talking about. These are ABSOLUTELY not self amplified.

You really need an amp, these speakers are very loud since they are for competitions, I would recommend you getting some marine speakers.

You want your speakers to be wired into 2 ohms, not 4 in order to get the full 500 watts out of this amp. Otherwise your limited to 300. Let me suggest these speakers, they are what I have and are very impressive with this amp: MTX Audio Terminator Series TNE212D 1,200-Watt Dual 12-Inch Sub Enclosure

This is way too much amp for hogtunes speakers. While technically it will work, you should not set your gains to high, or you risk blowing the speaker. You need some better quality speakers to make this amp really shine. Try the Polk MM651 or the Biketronics Titan II speakers. Kicker and Infinity also have some decent speakers that will work nicely with this amp, and the Alpine SR series have good power that goes well with this amp.

You should be okay with that. Just be sure not to overpower it or you will blow the sub. I've used underpowered amps on mine and they sound amazing!
