Default amp question for 2 bm mkIII

would hooking up two bm mkIII to a Zed Audio Kronos amp be a good idea? The site says running the amp 2 channel bridged will be putting out 1000wx1 at 4ohm and at continuous power will be about 250wx2 at 4 ohm. I know the sub is ideally looking for approx 450w. So would Zed Audio Kronos + 2 bm mkIII = good idea? or potentially bad? dont want to blow out the sub.

Ideally the BM mkIII's are looking for anything less than 450 watts. 450 watts is their RMS power handling, which is not a power requirement. 200-400 watts per driver is perfect. Just take care of the drivers and you will be fine.

could I run 2 BM MKIV's off of my sub channel on my JL HD900/5 (1 x 500 @ 1-4ohms) and give them enough?
