[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8473283, member: 614752"] Ran it at 16V or .5 ohm? I do not believe that amp would make 3KW under normal system voltage at 1 ohm or over. That said, I wonder how much of an "upgrade" it's really going to be running 1.5 ohm vs. the pair of JL amps that will make 500W at real world impedance and input voltage.... they are stout little amps. Figure OP gets 1500W out of the AB amp, that's perhaps 1dB difference? Likely won't even be audible. I'd suggest if OP can't step up into a real 3K Korean amp this isn't going to turn out to be much improvement for him. [/QUOTE]
