My buddy ran his A7 3500s at 1/2 daily but he had the voltage to back it up....

Get some amps that you can just strap at 2 ohms, running .5 daily is kinda meh

Yeah Jeff ran them at .5 IIRC but he was on an 18v setup

Sounds like people here already have the answer

@Kangaroux sorry that was really mean....still friends? Also, I was just looking at them and thinking about trying one out just to see whats up. I'm trading my Rub2500.1 to @thegreatestpenn for his Memphis 2k so I can have 2k @ 2 but I'm always looking for new equipment to try!

IMO running your amp at .5 just kills the efficiency so much that you end up spending more on batteries and all that junk...Run it strapped at 2 and call it a day lol

I always go back in as soon as I mention someone and remove the ; Ninja edits FTW. Everyone is none the wiser! Do you have your amp standing up or is that the only way to mount it?

Just got this message from Jeff

"they are rated at 1.......

i run mine in my daily driver at .25 all day long........ and in my van they will play music wired at .13"

my amp can be mounted standing or laying flat. which ever works better. mine right now is standing up
