What amp should I pair with the BAMF124?

Match the amp to the sub's RMS rating, not the 3,500W peak. A mono amp that makes its rated power at 2 ohms suits the dual 4-ohm wiring.

Can I wire it to 2 ohms?

Yes. The two 4-ohm voice coils can be wired in parallel for a 2-ohm load, or in series for 8 ohms.

What size box does it need?

It is a standard 12-inch driver, so it fits many 12-inch sealed or ported enclosures. Check the mounting depth against your box before buying.

Is 3,500W its real power rating?

That is the peak rating. Continuous RMS power is much lower, and you should size the amp to the RMS figure.

Is it good for sound quality or just volume?

It is built for output. If you want tight, accurate bass, premium 12s from Kicker or Rockford Fosgate are better choices.

Our take on the Power Acoustik BAMF124 12 in. 3500W Subwoofer Dual 4 ohm Max

The Power Acoustik BAMF124 is a 12-inch car subwoofer with a dual 4-ohm voice coil, so it can be wired to a 2-ohm or 8-ohm load. Power Acoustik rates it at 3,500 watts max, a big peak number for a driver in this class; treat the RMS figure as the one that matters for matching an amp. It suits bass-heavy builds where output and low cost matter more than sound quality. Against pricier 12s from Kicker or Rockford Fosgate, it gives up some refinement and long-term durability, and owners say it needs a proper sealed or ported box and clean power to sound its best.
