120 RMS INTO THAT SUB IS not ENOUGH.

You won't be happy, it won't be loud enough, so you'll run it into clipping all the time and destroy your sub.

I used to use two 12" 301's with 300 RMS EACH.

Get a bigger amp!!

Its 150w RMS?
"150 Watts x 1 Continuous Power Bridged @ 4ohm"

Still, 150w isn't much. I went with 400w rms for a single sub and I wouldn't consider my self a bass person. If you have it already give it a go. Looks like you're meeting the spec of the sub.

What impedance is the sub? will you amp run bridged at 2ohms? could squeeze more power out of it.

You would also squeeze the amp into destructing....
