higher resistance = lower power consumption?

[QUOTE="xgame, post: 8180290, member: 658194"] I have a 1000w amp (APSM-1300). If I wire it down to 1 ohm to achieve 1000w out of it, will that draw that same amount of power as if it was wired to 4 ohms at 400w? Or less? Does having a higher resistance (lower power output) reduce the amp's power consumption from the battery/alternator? [/QUOTE]
