Anybody running or have ran a ppi art series at 1ohm?

looking at either the old school phoenix gold titanium series or the ppi art series but i need to run them at 1 ohm mono. i have run the phoenix gold that low before but that has a good fan. any info?
I have run the A1200 before and Could not run it for any length of time below 3 ohm mono, heck it got hot as the sun at 4ohm mono. I never water cooled mine, water cooled they might go lower. I always thought that was a pretty cool option PPI threw in there. Maybe someone that has can chime in.

 
yeah i forgot about that. how the heck do you hook up that cooling?
I remember finding a website a few years ago that had all the manuals for PPI products of the 90s(PRO-MOS,Art series,Powerclass,Etc.) and also some tech bulletins about liquid cooling the arts. I know you had to drill some holes in the end of the circular and trianglar parts of the heatsink and tread fitting into them, I think it even talked about what kind of pump to use. I dont know the website. IIRC it was hosted by some college or University, I think a proffeser obsessed with PPI might have had it up. I wish I could remember, at the time I was looking for a maual for the PSC-221 phase shift controller(I still have that, maybe I should put it in the classifieds:) ).

 
In terms of the regular art series (A200 - A1200 as well as .2 series) the lowest you can go is 4 ohms! They may run lower than that but will get hot as hell and probably wont last that long. For a short time they made the Pro Art series which I believe was 2 ohm stable.

here is a link to a site with some PPI related stuff including the water cooling instructions

navigate to the audio section then PPI
