[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 2827323, member: 561023"] If you're only powering the single 10W7 then why upgrade to an amp purely due to 1 Ohm load stability when you're using a SVC 3 Ohm driver? It would seem to me that for your particular application 1 Ohm stability would/should be of very little import unless you're planning on making changes to your sub(s) somewhere in the future... That being said I cannot directly comment on Memphis' Power Reference gear but those that have it seem to enjoy it just fine and I cannot recall hearing/reading an inordinate amount of tales related about equipment failure on that line of gear. So - all in all you should enjoy it just fine, I would wager. Just bear in mind that the given RMS ratings for that amp are as follows: 300w X 1 @ 4 Ohms 600w X 1 @ 2 Ohms and 1kW X 1 @ 1 Ohm Driving an SVC 3 Ohm sub and after factoring in box rise and whatnot I would guess that the Memphis amp you've referenced would give a 10W7 around 350-500w depending on the charging system you have feeding it. Is that enough to satisfy you? [/QUOTE]
