that amp cant handle .5 daily at least, not sure how it would do in burps, but daily is a no no at .5 ohms.

thanks for the pic. i knew how to wire it i just wasnt sure if i could get lower than 2 somehow since the brutus amp is 1ohm stable

You don't want to listen to him, he's only going off of Rockford's site, if you run them in parallel you can achieve a .5 ohm load.

so .5 is usually only used for comps? no daily setups?

that rockford website is very handy FYI -- its how i learned how to achieve my ohms

on that amp, i would say yes.

if he had 4 svc 4ohm he could have 1 ohm, but 4 dual 4ohm subs can be wired to .5 ohm //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

But is the amp .5ohm stable?":fyi:"

No.

Yea, that

And yet you're still asking if you can achieve a 1 ohm load with 4 dual 4's? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

ok well i dont have that amp yet. im either getting the brutus, or another kx400.1 -- if i use 2 kx400.1's i can stay at en even 2 - 2.5 ohms, correct? i say 2.5 because the last setup i had ended up being 2.5 ohms with the 400.1

Yes I know that picture was series parallel, but if you ran all the vc's in parallel, you can achieve .5, sillynoob.

theres no such thing as series paralell. theres series, and then theres paralell.

2.5 ohms????//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

Knockoff KX 400.1??

Ha, the irony

your telling me you know how to wire something in "series paralell" -- please enlighten me
