[QUOTE="shizzzon, post: 8530140, member: 590338"] Yep. This is because it's not proper to wire speakers in a fashion that would exhibit a reactive load around 1ohm. So the internals are not built to sustain that output. That's why it's common to say if it's rated at 1ohm, expect their 2ohm output rating from it. Some Taramp's amps that we have had a hand in releasing as well as a few others over the last 2 years have been upgraded to handle more "abuse" since people no longer know how to install audio anymore.. The amplifiers that are 14.4v rated can handle 0.5ohm wiring with explicit recommendations to prevent potential failure. With these new amps, there are 2 ways to get maximum output, wiring low or running high voltage. Luckily, the safer and cleaner method is to ditch wiring low and run over 15v and wire no lower than 1ohm. You will retain over 90% efficiency levels while keeping the amplifier happy and loud.
