[QUOTE="cocoleveo7686, post: 8481618, member: 580030"] i also wonder too why people say its worse on an amp to run .5 ohms vs 1 ohm when with box rise the amp doesnt see .5 ohms. Some people say you only gain a little well lets say you have a 6k amp that does 6k at 1 ohm and 3k at 2 ohm. If you wire to 1 ohm and you have 3x box rise you will be at about 3 ohms. If you wire to .5 you will be at about 1.5 assuming its 3x box rise. So thats how people get 5k out of a 5k amp is wiring lower. But for the amp sake why is it bad? The scenario i just posted is what im worried about. Spending alot on a 5k and wiring to 1 ohm and seeing only 3k vs 4500 or more [/QUOTE]
