Just looking at the spec's you get bad vibes. It's not very power efficent, not 1 ohm stable, 18dB boost (to cover up lack of power), it has only 50 amp max pull.
The question.. "will it run my subs" well yes of course.
But don't exspect superior sound quality or reliablility in hot weather or even long life time periods. This brand is no better than Boss, Pyle, or legency.
I wouldn't suggest this amp to anyone. There are more cost effective options that will allow benifits in all aspects. Sound, Power, Reliability, durability, you will find it easier on you're electricals with a highly efficient model.

I would never buy this amp if it were for me......
not a trustworthy brand... i wud say even the most notorious brand known for over rating amps : sony monobloc amps are far better than visonik, plye, boss, legacy, pyramid...etc
Well the other brands are far better than sony too.. alpine, jbl, jl, PG, MA, BA...etc....
If the signal and power going to Top Class subs is not good then even those subs wont play good.. you ought to be very careful while selecting amps .. especially when it is buying amps to power ur subs..
never go for cheap brands.. instead its always better to save money and not listen to good music in ur car for some time rather than listening to bad music thru out ur life..

That Power Acoustik amp has good potential. You can wire each sub at 2 ohms and 1 sub per channel. That's 360 WRms/sub. Not bad for such a low price.
One thing though, this amp will draw a few more amps than your car can deliver. Best guess, it will pull between 80-90A of current at full power. This is a Class A/B amp. So, efficiency of power usage is ~50-60%. It is bridgable to a 4 ohm load which your subs can do. However, best to look for Class D or T amps that can deliver solid power at 1 ohm loads.
I thought you were tracking the JBL BP-600.1 with the new subs? That amp is under rated (12.9 volts rating) at 600 RMS (almost 700 watts @ 13.5 volts) and is 1 ohm stable. That amp draws under 60A at full power and you will not hear a difference between the 2 amps.
