here is what nick said to you in his first response:
you also dont know how underrated the 20.1 is
this is fact since you dont own one. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
along with the fact that you don't know jack shit about impedence rise
This is implied by the fact that you claimed that the orion 2500 would run at 0.5ohm daily. Such a conclusion COULD be off base, but I was inclined to agree with Nick. As the transducer plays different frequencies, the back emf, and consequently the reactive impeadance, is going to rapidly vary all over the place. In some frequencies it may be up to 8ohms, even when the dcr is 0.5, in others it may drop to 0.8...
not to mention that "2500d" is not running at no where near a .5ohm load
this is correct, see above
if it were it'd be nothing but smoke and a distant memory
I cant say one way or the other, but im inclined to agree. ANY amp seeing a real time 0.5ohm reactive is going to have a tough time living... I can think of only 2 amps that MIGHT operate under 0.5 reactive and the 20.1 is one of those...
ohm's law is a ***** isnt it?
again truthful. The usual MO of people is they think "well if this amp does 2500 at 1ohm, itll do 5000 at 1/2ohm, and 10,000 at 1/4ohm!" Sorry life doesnt work that way.
Sure stang may have come across a little rough, but if that bothers you you need thicker skin.
