[mattmcss 10+ year member]

I plan on running 3 ID12's i just bought , ive been looking around at amps , they are D2 ohm subs , so i can either have a 1.67 or a 3ohm load correct ? i was lookin at either a hifonics tx1505d http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18797&item=5777155511&rd=1 , or a soundstream 800.2 that puts out 800 rms bridged at 4 ohms , so my question is , can i run that soundstream amp at 3 ohms or will it have some problems

Why not just get an amp thats 1 ohm stable, and run it at the 1.67? Hell, even an amp thats 2 ohm stable would work, after impedance rise.

You can wire it to 1.33 ohm.
