[QUOTE="Scarenius, post: 579638, member: 555987"] You say it hits HARDER at 4 ohm? I have this problem. My subs are wired 8 ohm apiece to counter it. Basically, at 1 ohm it's trying to draw too much power, and you're starving it. I actually love having my subs at 8 ohm, they sound incredibly better and it's being very nice to my amp. Big 3, gain and HU settings tweaking, and higher impedance wiring. Pound away. Wattage ratings are irrelevant. My subs get maybe 60-100 watts apiece after gain and volume, and I'm quite happy being able to vibrate the outside rear view mirrors with the windows up. [/QUOTE]
