How well would this amp work with these subs?

I currently have a Massive Audio N2 amp and was curious of how well it would work with two Rockford Fosgate Punch P1S4-12 sub-woofers in a sealed box. thanks :D
 
For once I at least partially agree with JoSH. Except the gain issue. He or she doe not have a clue what the gain is. It's not a volume adjustment. It level matches the input of your amplifier to the output voltage of the source unit. So, if you have a high output source, you turn the gain down, if you have a low output source, you turn the gain up .... to match the voltage. Not just wherever you think it should be. I actually use an O-scope for setting gains. So rather than guess at where the clipping is occurring, I can see it on my scope.
 
each sub has a 150 watt rms rating and two 4ohm voice coils, you wanna wire both subs in series separately this will give each sub an 8ohm load, then wire both parallel to get a 4ohm load. your amp put out 200 watt at 4ohm so there is no risk to blow your subs in this case.
when wiring the subs to a load of 2ohm, don't turn the gains all the way up. i don't recommend wiring down to 1ohm.
