[QUOTE="caraudionow, post: 8607, member: 541549"] Kicker states that the subwoofers will handle 1000 watts RMS however running a BD1000.1 would push far more than 1000 watts into a 1ohm load. Why would you run a BD1000.1 at 1ohm. They are made to be run at 2ohm. A burnt voice coil is the result of overpowering the subwoofer in which the coil wire exceeds its rated current flow. If anyone doubts this call Rockford Fosgate yourself (800.669.9899) and ask their technicians if you can run a BD1000.1 at 1ohm load and see what they have to say. Fosgate will tell you in no uncertain terms that you could possibly burn up the amplifier and/or your speakers and say DO NOT DO IT! [/QUOTE]
