Stage PreAmp

Will this amp be enough power to run my 2 subs?
I have 2 KICKER CVT10 CVT SHALLOW MOUNT SUB WOOFERS 2-OHM with 400 watts RMS and 800 watts max. i have 2 total of those and i was wondering if a 2008 SONY XM-1S CAR CLASS-D MONO SUB AMPLIFIER 900W would be enough power....by the way im putting it in a 2008 f150 so
there is not much room which is why i got that amp.
these are the specs on the amp
Mono subwoofer car amplifier
Slim series
290 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms
500 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms
Variable bass boost
Class D amplifier design
Switchable subsonic filter
Preamp inputs and outputs
Low pass crossover
Speaker level inputs
MOSFET power supply and output stage
CEA-2006 compliant
My first instinct would be to tell you to look elsewhere. Not due to any brand reason.
The only real reason to look for another amp is because of the fact that your subs are 2 ohms, single voice coil. That forces you to wire them at either a 1 or 4 ohm final load. Unfortunately that amp isn't stable at one ohm. leaving you with a 4 ohm load.
That being said. Keep in mind that the wattage rating isn't a hard and fast figure to stick to. There is actually a very wide range of choices. If you were to power those subs at their rated wattage and keep the stock system up front. You would have a very unbalanced sound. Without the head room in the front a sub system will overpower the front stage.
Over all. That amp being of decent quality and being CEA rated will do a pretty good job of powering those subs.
If you're looking to max them out though. I would look for an amp that is rated at 700-800 watts at one ohm.

Nord Stage Compact + Speakeasy Preamp Demo
Is 100k Ohms too much for LM386 input stage?
I am currently building a small guitar amplifier with a sub-mini tube preamp stage feeding a LM386 for the amplifier stage. The sub-mini tube preamp output signal is approximately 100k ohms and I was wondering if this is appropriate for the input of the LM386.
The mini-amp is in essence very similiar in design to the well known Smokey Amp. I am only building a sub-mini tube pre-amp for it because I have the tubes lying around. I am not expecting to get high quality sound and my only wish is that it sound a little better then a stock Smokey design. This amp is being design solely as a novelty with the hope that I can use it to practice with while traveling.
no, the 386 has a typical input Z of about 50kΩ, so with a 100kΩ source impedance you will lose 2/3s of the signal. And the input will be at a high impedance and tend to pick up hum and noise.
If you are going to use an IC amp, using tubes for their supposed better sound quality is not too effective.
