Can a Mmats 3500.05 be ran at .3ohms(.4DCR) daily?

No, this amp was built to be ran at .5. It is nearly 80% efficient at that ohm load, because that's what it was built for. Just like they have a 1ohm version of it that is built to be ran at no lower than 1ohm. And a 2ohm version of it that is built to be ran no lower than 2ohms. They are phenomenal amps with unrivaled efficiency, build quality, and footprint. But there's no way in hell I'd risk running them below what they were meant for.If you really want to know, the only way is to call Mmats. They obviously won't recommend it, but they can let you know if it can survive that with proper electrical.

Thanks, are the 1 and 2 ohm versions of this amp more efficient?.. im considering trying to trade for a 1ohm version.

Hope this helps you
My Mmats 3500.5

So you run your 3500.05 at .25 daily?

If so, what is your electrical and have you ever clamped it?

Called mmats and the guy said he cant recommend running it at .4dcr but they know people who run them as low as .25ohms.

He said to keep an eye on the voltage keep above 10.5v

I asked what efficiency im looking at that ohm load and he said about 82%

No, they are all equally efficient as their various counterparts, at their optimal load.

Mmats for unrivaled efficiency.

And it sounds like you should be able to run it at .4 then.... You really do have to keep that voltage up, because they have a very strict protection circuitry.

Thanks, im really happy with this amp.. when I got it, I took a shot in the dark and I don't regret it haha.

Im glad to hear they have good protection, any clue what voltage it goes into protect?.. I have heard 10.5v

That's what I've read as well. I've never torture tested mine to be sure though @TaylorFade; might know that.

Lowest I have ever ran daily was .5
