[QUOTE="RJones87, post: 7947937, member: 646628"] I recently purchased a Hifonics HFi1000D, and one Alpine 1223D sub. The amp is rated for RMS Power Rating: 4 ohms: 475 watts x 1 chan. 2 ohms: 750 watts x 1 chan. 1 ohms: 1000 watts x 1 chan. The sub is a DVC 2 ohm rated at 300-600 rms I wasn't thinking on how to wire up the sub and didnt realize that it could only be wire up to 1 ohm and 4 ohm. Obviously, if I wire it up to a 4 ohm load, the amp is under powering the sub. If I do 1 ohm is over by 400. I'm just wondering if it is okay to to wire it to a 1 ohm load, or If i should try to find a better amp for the sub? [/QUOTE]
