Not too many people have had experience with those high power amps. But they are all of very good build quality.

I don't have any experience with them. I am pretty sure the AB VFL500.1 can handle 0.5 ohm though.

they'll DO it daily, but sometimes don't like it.. they don't really have the heat sinks for daily driving, especially not that low.

if you notice on the VFL amps they say "spl" on them.. which means they do quite well for burping LOW.. but sometimes have trouble keeping up w/daily driving @ low ohm loads.. IIRC.

not .5ohm for daily driving only for comp
