Nope. If power is a concern upgrade the big 3.

A capacitor is cheaper than a few feet of wire and ring terminals?

are each of your subs 550 rms? or is that for both? the amp does 550 rms at 4 ohms, bridged. If you run that amp you can't run it bridged below 4 ohms. What kind of car is this going on and what kind of sound are you going for?

Alrighty so I looked up your subs and each woofer handles 550 rms. If you ran the amp listed you would only be feeding them half their capable power handling. However, the amp listed also wouldn't do the rated power, so they'd actually be seeing a 1/3 of their capable power. The problem with going with amps that are cheaper in price is that they will not do all of their rated power. I believe these subs are a single 4 ohm voice coil so you are going to need an amp that will do 1100 rms at 2 ohms. If you want to go with a cheaper amp, do one that says they will do around 1500 rms at 2 ohms and it may do your 1100 rms at 2 ohms which you need.

If you ran it 2 channeled yes, it does 550 rms at 4 ohm each channel.
