[QUOTE="Jakerrr, post: 8426794, member: 637923"] For what it's worth, very high output amplifiers wired to high resistance (for example, 4 ohms) will tend to draw less current for a specific amount of power (for example, 1500wrms) than another less powerful amplifier wired to low resistance (for example, .5 ohm). Even though they are both providing 1500 watts, the amplifier wired at lower resistance will draw significantly more current from your energy source. That's why you always hear sub ohming is hard on your electrical. You get more power, but you draw a **** load more current [/QUOTE]
