[QUOTE="IDSkoT, post: 5225743, member: 584344"] HAHA! Oh, God. JL IS LOUDER CAUSE IT COST ME $2,000 DOLLARS! THERE'S NO WAY YOUR $250 DOLLAR COULD BE AS LOUD! IMPOSSIBLE! It's BS. A lot of amps are 2-ohm stable, and whether or not it's good for your sub is based on the sub. As for efficiency, regularly, the higher the ohm (In #), the more efficient it is. However, there are amps which are designed to be efficient at low-ohms. However, the power gains in most applications is a lot when stepping down from 2 ohms to 1-ohm. For instance, an amp that does 600 x 1 @ 2-ohms can do about 1000 x 1 @ 1-ohm (This is just hypothetical, even though there are quite a few amps which can do these exact numbers). Some amps will have an efficiency chart, or will say they are % efficient at ohms. [/QUOTE]
