2 IA 20.1's at .5 ohm ?

Well I want to ask a question that I probobly know the answer to but maybe I am wrong. If I were to have a 200 amp alt (and stock to power vehicle) with 2 deka dominator g31's would I have the electrical to run 2 IA 20's at .5 ohm each?

would be best to have more to back them up

Thats what I figured, I got a offer for 1 IA 20 and thought that I could pick another up and run 2. I don't really have the room to run any more for where I want everything. Man that kinda blow's, it would of been a nice option.

IK the guy who ran the amp before me ran it on his stock alt at 1ohm on a single deka at full tilt and it was fine. IDK about .5ohm tho. You might be ok with it. But as said above, more backup never hurts.

BTW, you can pm him if you would like, its newageking

for daily? or for burps? or what?

I ran a SINGLE IA 20.1 with a stock alternator, kinetik 2400 and a kinetik 800 under the hood.

It definately ran okay. It was able to stand playing above 50% volume on my headunit for a 6 hour drive, but it was pretty warm afterwards.

Im running mine on stock alt and stock batt right now w/ big 3. Havent turned it up at all, just cant live without the bass, so i wanted to put it in. But i cant turn it up, i dont want this amp to see low volts.

run them strapped at 2 ohms for daily, then wire them down for burps.

I ran one with a stock alty at 1 ohm in my Xterra with 2 old G31 YTs and I dont think I ever dropped much below 13.5 with the car running. Loud as hell too for its size.

Well this is for a daily set-up. I don't drive with my stereo at full tilt for hours but I would like to be able to play a song or to at high volumes to show it off or what not(truck running of course). I figured that I could run two at 1 ohm each and be good but wasnt sure about running them at .5 ohm each. Man I don't have the money for a bigger alt and I don't have the room 2 run more than my 2 g31 batts.

We are both confused i think, your wanting my amp and I wouldn't mind having yours plus another but we are both after the same amp that is for sale witch is neither a RD or an IA but maybe a AB. Thats to funny

Sorry forgot to respond to your quote. I already have the subs and they are dual 1 ohm's so my wiring options are already made for me. I had a plan but money became an issue so I am looking at other options that would work and still make me happy.
