[QUOTE="80_Cutlass_mn, post: 386701, member: 545695"] Exactly what it says. JL Audio amplifiers are EXTREMELY regualated amplifiers set to put out their rated power in all ohm configurations and input voltage levels. They constantly monitor the ohm load at their speaker terminals and adjust the rail voltage accordingly to maintain, as in this case with the 500/1, 500 watts at anywhere from I think its 1.3 ohms up to 8 ohms. It never changes. Thats why you cant gain more power from these amps by halving the ohm load, the amps themselves wont allow it and lower their internal rail rail voltage to compensate. Thats why I personally hate JL audio amplifiers. [/QUOTE]
