Is this amp good enough?

I have a mtx 302 2 channel amp heres the specs

12.5 V RMS power
75x2 4 ohm
150x2 2 ohm
300 bridged into 4ohm

14.4v RMS power
120x2 4ohm
212x2 2ohm
425 bridged into 4 ohm load

Is this enough power to run 2 Alpine type R 12" subs? or should I buy the JBL 1200.1 amp?

also does this mean the mtx amp is stable to a 4ohm load or 2 ohm load?? thanks

The amp is stable to a 2ohm stereo, and 4ohm mono (bridged) load.

Id spring for the bigger amp. I put 2 Type R's on a 501BD, and I wasnt impressed at all. Maybe if the other shops and the customer were a little more educated, he could have gotten the right stuff. I had to run the amp @ 4ohm, instead of 2, so there was a lot less power going to them...
