If the subwoofers are rated for 400 watts max, and the enclosure is a sealed enclosure, I would get an amplifier that peaks at 400 watts while bridged and is 2 ohm stable, this way, you can bridge the output of the amp, and drive both!
Make sure the amp has an active crossover and has a good signal to noise ratio, and a low THD%.
You'll be good to go.

Your best buy is going to be a diamond audio d3. I have been a customer of diamond audio for about six years and I have never had a problem with any of their equipment. I have found you a good amp for your subs on ebay, click the link below to view.

those are 200 watts per speaker total of 400 watts rms so go to caraudiodeals.com and get the Audiobahn A4002V for $100

Get some thing that won't exceed the maximum power rating of the speakers or you will turn it up and smoke them. It says 400 watts, Is that per speaker or for both combined? You will want to get a two channel amp. If you decide later on to add door speakers you will want to get a separate four channel amp and probably a crossover. But with what you have now you can probably get a stereo with decent power to run any smaller speakers. Can't recommend any name brands but I just wanted to worn you about power ratings.

alot of companies list their peak wattage. So if your enclosures are 400 watts, you are averaging about 200 watts rms.
I would say, just get a 400 watt amp. 2ch,

definitely dont get a 1000 watt amp, first of all those arent worth that much how much did you pay for them, since you alredy have them, i suggest getting no more than 200 watts rms, i would say this amp should work good with it
