As you probably noticed, Eminence makes several woofers of various power ratings. If you put two in series, then power handling is raised and if you put two in parallel, then sensitivity is raised but power handling remains the same.

As for the amplification required, generally you want the two to be matched. Some prefer to get an amplifier that is capable of a little more power than the speakers can handle, so ensure the amplifier won't clip. That's not a bad idea. But don't overdo it, the whole point is to match the amp with the speakers.
