Will my 2 amps draw more current if I do this?

[QUOTE="WOT, post: 4289063, member: 581904"] Im going to install 2 15" subs in my car. 2 audique SDC 2.5's. I can either power them with one cadence txa 1000D, run it to 1ohm and give the pair 1000rms (500rms a piece). Or, because I have 2 txa 1000D amps, I can run the amps @ 2ohm and give EACH sub 650rms @ 2ohm Now my question is, would an amp running @ 2ohm pulling 650rms, which is its peak rms for the ohm rating, with the gains up all the way use AS MUCH current as the same amplifier running @ 1 ohm pulling 1000rms. Id like to know if they would use the same ammount of current because they are both being pushed to the limit of there ohm rating, or if pulling 650w compared to 1000w means it would only consume 65% of the current? hard to explain, get what im saying?
