[QUOTE="Boominburban, post: 8625987, member: 664509"] yeah, I wasn't getting into the whole impedance rise convo. But yeah, if you rise from .5 to around 1, then wired at 2 you will normally end up around 2.8-3.2 . But your still not going to lose your lows. I know if my choices were to wire a 2k 1 ohm amp to .5 ohm to get the power i need, or wire a different amp to 2 ohm. (and I could afford it) Id get a 4.5 - 5k korean amp and wire it to 2 ohms.( and have built in upgrade room and headroom) Or a 2 ohm 3k Brazilian amp. Don't forget, at .5 ohm efficiency, thd, damping = poop .... [/QUOTE]
