[QUOTE="Dafaseles, post: 8787977, member: 681482"] Yeah, I have to agree. Taking it a step further, you paid let's say $400 for a 1200 watt amp to get 500 watts out of it, when you could have bought a 500 watt amp for say $150 and all would have the same output and same end result running 1 ohm. 500 watts isn’t going to stress most people electrical out that much, I was just curious. So then it would be more efficient at 4 ohm just under clipping than 1 ohm with the gain turned down. Interesting. I can see where that can be true. It's made to work a certain way. One day, I'll have to try it out. [/QUOTE]
