[QUOTE="95BlackGA, post: 3073743, member: 576452"] Nice way of showing your ignorance, agreed? I have my subs wired to 4 ohms, I only put that 1 ohm load on it twice, to see if the amp would take that 1 ohm load, which is when my fuse blew, and then to see if it would when I put the 100amp fuse in it. When I found that the amp stayed on at a 1 ohm load for a period of time, I rewired them back to 4 ohms. The amp DID play at 1 ohm for quite some time. (But I guess this means it's not 1ohm stable...) Yes, I was a moron for tryin' it, but as you said, I was thinking outside of the box. The only reason why I said it was 1 ohm stable, was because it didn't go into protect, it didn't shut off, it did get a little warm, but nothing that was harmful. I still have my subs being powered off of the same amp, just at a 4 ohm load. Once I got to the store to get new fuses, I did put an 80amp fuse back in, inplace of the 100amp fuse. The only reason why the fuse blew was because it was over the rated limit of the fuse, it is perfectly acceptable to up that fuse IF you have appropriate sized wire for such current transfer, which I do have the appropriate sized wire for the amount of current transfer.
