1500XXK..1 ohm?

[Zxcvtypo 10+ year member]

Would it be safe to run a 1500XXK at 1 ohm? I have a 4150 and 2100 already for my next set-up..i'd like to stay in the XXK family and sell my 1200.1 then replace it with a 1500 for my mag //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif just dunno if it'd be safe or not...i'm guessing no, but just making sure

I heard ARC is all out of the 1500XXk so get it while they last I guess. Arc does NOT recommend it to be run at 1 ohm....

Correct. But its been done successfully.

the POWER differences may only be 100~ watts..not realy worth risking, but it IS possible.

according to the PDF it says it will take 3 turn on cycles to allow the amp to run at 1 ohm true?... NOT worth it.

Which amp do you like better the 2500 xxk or 1500xxk?
