[QUOTE="NIHL8ION, post: 8076939, member: 653120"] Did you look at the specs of his subs? He is totally underpowering them, each sub can take his amp ALONE... & Um yeah... last I checked ANY amp you are going to run does NOT run as efficient @ 1 ohm = MORE Distortion = MORE Heat = MORE Strain! That and last I also checked those amps dish out more power @ 1 ohm than they do @ 2... ALL of these factors make for a LOT more draw off of your electrical running them @ 1 ohm maxxed the heck out because his subs still want more than it can give them! Either way regardless of whether or not he sells one and finds another to get a matching set I would either A - Get a bigger amp to give those subs what they need, or B - Get another amp and run each sub to it's own amp - ESPECIALLY in this case of you decided you are sticking with two totally different subs - They should be on different amps [/QUOTE]
