[QUOTE="BoomTaco64, post: 8237008, member: 659681"] i have two of the alpine mrp-m2k amps. i am looking to run them to the hdc415-d1 subs at 2ohm. i was just curious of whether running each sub at 2ohms will be better than getting two different amps and running them at .5 ohm. i am really just wondering if there will be a sound difference or if there will be any gains/losses by doing so...i figured running them at 2ohm will be a little less current and easier on my electrical system. i did not want to get into an amp pissing match that is why i gave the analogy of the .5 ohm and 2 ohm at the same power. i know my amps are not .5ohm stable(not even 1ohm) so i did not say what ones cause i did not need to hear "they can not do that" from everyone. i guess i was wondering if anyone knew whether wiring at .5 or 2 would be better or worse? is there any advantages or wiring in either way?
