steve also fried his at .35 (and with box rise that makes it over .5)

i'd say its POSSIBLE, since the amp plays and doesnt kick into protect, but its really pushing it, and not wise for daily

i say you run it at 1 ohm and not try and push shit to the limit so it breaks and then you complain on how much it sucks when you dont follow specs. PEOPLE QUIT DOING THIS!

theres no such thing as too expensive when it comes to upgrades like that, because imo if you are gonna spend to upgrade then do it correctly rather then be a cheap ass ricer

I agree, I ran mines at .5 for a burp but that was it, I do not recommend these at .5 daily even with electricals.

it comes down to, is it worth the extra couple hundred watts? those rockford amps are very expensive and so are the repairs, i dont think its worth the risk. my amps are very inexpensive to repair and have a very fast turn around, so im not afraid to try .35 burps and .5 daily (works fine .5@40hz

)
