Old School PPI Amp

[noonej21 10+ year member]

your assumptions are correct. I can drop the subs down to 1ohm by running them parrallel, parrallel, parrallel.. Positive term form amp to one sub pos terminal and then 2 jumpers to the other positives and the same way with the negatives. Is there anyway that the amp can be run at one ohm, or am I stuck at running the subs at 4ohms? The subs cannot be wired to run at 2 ohms, just 4 or 1ohm.
My system, 3JL10W6, PPI 1400, PPI 4100, Old school (pre fosgate) JL mids and tweets, Eclipse 55040.

From what I have been told, the PPI amps do not handle running at lower that rated impedances. They get very warm and eventually go into protect mode. I think you are stuck. By the way nice set of amps, I have the same ones plus a PC2150, I would love to get a PC2350 just to have but they are real hard to find.

Thanks! I also have a PC 2200 chrome that I am no longer using.
