[QUOTE="BOOMINGRANDPA, post: 8649076, member: 671921"] "box rise" is really impedance rise mostly a concern for larger ported boxes., if u run at 2 ohm the impedance changes every split second depending on freqs the in the songs u play and how much subs moves so it maybe 3.8 then 4.1 the 4.5 etc so u normally get the power amp does at 4 ohm.. if u run at 1 ohm u get the power amp does at 2 ohm of course these are guesses not exact, it maybe 1.8 as 1 guy said his was, it maybe 2.5 (depends on subs and box).. this is why some most guys here "over power" subs i ran over 900rms to a 600rms pioneer now 1150rms to a 750 rms fu 750 (some run 3k to 2 8's).. as far as making amp last longer i get that point and peeps will tell u i was at 2 ohm so long they called it "gramp ohm" here until 2 months ago.. however if u run at 2 ohm with max high to get power u want not much diff in that and running at 1 ohm with gain set low (thats called having headroom, like having a car that can do 200mph but never running faster than 130).. like they said if u pay say $600 for amp and run at 2 ohm only getting 4 ohm power u are just using $200 worth of the power lol.. whats subs are u thinking about we can help u find amp to run at full power, maybe the wolfram 3k and set gain low i can link u video shows u how to set gain for certain power range [/QUOTE]
