[QUOTE="DNick454, post: 6540473, member: 600755"] When you halve the impedance, the power doesn't magically double. You draw more current, produce more heat, and the amp is a considerable amount less efficient. Hence the drop in power. Those are real world tests, not some bullshit bench test for a quick burst of power on a static resistor on a constant 14.4V or whatever. If you read, it said it dropped to 13.8V, so that combined with the loss in efficiency for running at 1 ohm, it's not that hard to believe. [/QUOTE]
