wire 2 kicker l5s to .5 ohm

If i wire 2 12" (dvc 2ohm) kicker L5s to .5 ohm would the amp rise be high enough to wire an amp to 1 ohm?

You mean box rise and prolly not but what kind of amp is it?

yea really depends on the amp, box, car, tuning. alot of things come into play with imp. rise. if its a good amp u should be fine but things like hifonics who are so so at 1 ohm dont even try it. lol

Not worth the risk.

What do u mean so so at 1 ohm?

I've never seen a hifonics have any problem running at 1ohm.

U shoulda said a Sony or a kicker, that's not even rated at 1ohm.( can handle it with the right electrical)

there's no need to give false info to noobs who already have trouble understanding.

x2 and older hifonics can probably be ran to a dead short on the proper electical. lol.

i understand car audio somwhat...im just wondering if 1) the 2 subs would create an Impedance Rise closer to 1ohm, and 2)if the usamp md2d can handle an load between .5 and 1 ohm.
