[QUOTE="IASCA pro 301-6, post: 189176, member: 541179"] It all depends on how you are getting the power. If you are going to power the sub with, let's say 300 watts at a 4 ohm load on an amp that can and should only run at 4 ohm...it will be fine. If you give it 300 watts at a 1 ohm load, and are pushing the amp past it's clipping range, then with the same power, the 1 ohm load will sound like crap. More power is usually desired, and then you do not have to run your amp as hard. [/QUOTE]
