AP1500, will it survive .67 ohms?

[KTMrida4life 10+ year member]

Simple question. Can an AP1500 survive at .67 ohms? Plans changed, instead of running 4 D4 subs at .5 Im going to only run 3 due to space at .67.

I could raise the budget and my standards a bit but I realllllllly need sound deadening.. lol

I ran my pa a2400db @ .67 with stock elec(130a, 1000cca/850ca batt) and it was fine.

More then likely after rise it'll come to 1.1~ ohm final load anyways.

OK. I dont have anything real special for a battery (duralast gold) but I do have a high output alternator and Im doing the big 3 upgrade with 1/0 soon. I plan on buying a volt meter as well to see how bad I get voltage drop. Hoping its not too bad.. if it drops below 12v I will get a second battery.. hopefully something light, car is going to be weighted down pretty good with the new box/subs.

So an AP1500 will work.. OK I'll take yalls word. There for sale on ebay for 145$ shipped and I believe they have a 1 year warranty on them, just in case. Would they warranty it if I ran it below 1 ohm, or is there not anyway for them to know?

Like sbiser said after rise you will Brit close to 1 if not higher so you should be fine!

Lol ^^

Found this thread asking the same question.

Seems to be everyone except one person said it will be OK. Guess Ill buy a new one for 150$ with a warranty as well as a volt meter and watch it like a hawk and upgrade my electrical if I have to. From what Ive read and have been told, it sounds like the amp can handle it as long as your electrical can, and if your electrical cant, you will drop below 12 volts too many times and fry it. Hope my high output alt and duralast battery are up to this. lol

Just bought a lanzar opti 2000D off ebay for 185$ shipped used.

Its .5 ohm stable, so that should be better than the AP.
