[QUOTE="Spooney, post: 7579595, member: 584130"] Personally unless it is a comp situation I don't see why people ever really run amps rated for 1 ohm operation at .5 or lower. Yes many amps will handle it but are you gaining that much more power? Can you hear the difference in a daily setup from 1 ohm to .5 ohm? Why not just run your quality amp at 1 ohm and have it last a long time. If its not loud enough for you then buy a bigger amp and run it as intended instead of trying to force your smaller amp to do something it wasn't meant to do. Just my opinion as I know lots of people have had success with this but why even chance it. Some amps will do it and some won't but if its rated for 1 ohm and you run it at 1 ohm then you will most likely have way fewer problems and a longer lasting amp. [/QUOTE]
