I'm running a 12' 800watt fosgate, and a 15' 1500watt clarion off of a 35 watt powered computer amp. and i shake the window next door. so Yes you can run them, can you run them the way they should be?... no. As for the 640 amp, even if you only have one side of it, it will run the subs better, just run them parallel

You can run the subs on any amp, I don't care what anyone says. As long as you have it where it's not distorted, it's fine. Just may not loud as it could be with more power
