amp draw difference between, 1 ohm and .7 ohm

[DRCKISS 10+ year member]

just wondering how much of a difference of power draw of an amp between 1 ohm - .7 ohm. I mean something like 1 ohm = 300 amps and or .7 ohm = 425 amps or something like that.

Impossible to tell you with out knowing the amp. You can't just say any given amp will pull so many amps @ a certain load. It depends on the class of amp and rated power output...

well my amp can draw up 400 at 2ohms and 600 at .7 so it will draw up to 60% more than it will at 2ohms but there is no way to know not inless you call the company.

you CAN call the company but most amps arnt rated down there, and the company will probably tell you thats not supported so there are no number on it and it would void your warranty.

amps are rated at 1ohm, the DCR of your sub is probly cose to that even though it is a 1 ohm sub.

You really wont notice a difference.
