At what resistance does your 1kw + amp do max power?

[eric77 10+ year member]

I was just wondering what most 1kw + amps do max power at and remains stable according to the manufacturer. If your 1 ohm stable amp can go to .5 ohm stable with some modding lets classify it is as doing max power at 1 ohm for the sake of this thread. Feel free to post what amp you have, what resistance it does max power at, and what rms power at that resistance is.

orion 600d- 1ohm

(2) orion 1200ds ( on the way) - 1 ohm I have read that these will do almost 2400 apiece at 14v anyone know if that is true?

I have a Boss RipD3 amp right now, it says it puts out 1200@4 ohms. It does not say how much power it puts out at 1 ohm but it is 1 ohm stable. My sub is wired to .5 ohm and I have yet to have any problems with this amp, so from my experience with boss I really don't think that their amps are that bad. I don't know how mch power it is actually putting out, but for running at .5 ohms for over a month with no problems whatsoever, it is doing pretty good for a cheap product.

the 1200D will do more than ratted power for sure, but not 2400, thats a huge jump, if you mod them to run at 16 or 18 volts then maybe you could get closer to 2k

My 1w amp will do that between 2 and 8 ohms...between 8 and 16 if I swapped out the output transformers. I win //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Mine claim to do 2400 watts RMS at 1 ohm. But more likely 2200 watts
