i got the alpine mrd-m500 mono amp
which run 500wx1 @2 ohm RMS

i got 2 12" alpine type R 2+2ohm DVC
these type R are the newest model
Power Handling Capacity (Peak) : 1500W
Power Handling Capacity (RMS) : 500W

i know i can connect the 2 subs so that they run @ 2 ohm
but will my amp be really under power so that i won't get any bass out of it?
should i do a seal box or port box?
should i just get a 1000w amp instead?

i am running a pioneer avic-N1

thank you for helpin out

No, your amp will be able to drive both subs when properly wired to the amp.

Choose a sealed enclosure for your subs. A ported enclosure will take much more room and need to be properly tuned.
