[QUOTE="poolman966554, post: 8649959, member: 665165"] thinking outside the box here, maybe 4 ohm setup is the way to go? Follow me here.. You can get a decent 5k amp for $600 (wolfram 4500.1) that does more power at 4 ohms than you current amp at 1 ohm. But what im thinking here is Efficiency. Amps are terribly inefficient at 1 ohm vs 4. typical 1 ohm is around 60%? and 4 ohm load s can get in the 80% range from most dyno tests ive seen. Less hard on everything, and you can still be loud. that will give you extended play time aswell. Just a suggestion. [MEDIA=youtube]iA5HuzhnMiM[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
