I'm thinking a Stetsom 5k2d 1 ohm Any Opinions?

I like the idea of a Cactus 7k or either of those Atomics but they are hard to find used haha

I just recently got some new subs. 2 18" AA Mayhem. My original plan was 2 AQs strapped but the AQ isnt liking the fact that each coil is .6 ohm... I am looking for 5-6000w rms @ 1 ohm but it has to be able to be used daily. I was looking at a Stetsom 5k2d but I'm not sure it will handle a daily driver setup.... (Don't know much about them) If you have owned anything and have an opinion on what I should look into please let me know! Thanks! EDIT: I'd like to stay under $1,000 but throw out options... the plan is to buy used anyway...

158.3

im tuned between 32-33 and its not shutting down there... I can play for a while then it will pop. other time it was instantly do it as soon as a note hits.. im using a lot of your songs to test this thing too btw haha yea. I have tested all of my coils even on the other sub and they all bounce between .5-.6

All coils bounce back and forth from .5 to .6...

i understand that but my amp did not go into protect before and it is now. same size sub, same impedance sub, same box, same amp, same amp settings. I know the subs are two completely different animals but I never through my BTL on this amp when it wasnt broken in. I'm going to check all of the coil today and keep this thread informed.

I believe Kian on our team did. But we kept getting different readings each time we tried it. it was really weird. but he said i have a very low rise. i forget exactly what he said because it was a good 2-3 BBq's ago. yea i am going to take it easy. tomorrow i think ill throw the other sub in the car and see if it does it too. i havent checked the coils on that one yet. my personal dmm is broken so ill have to wait til i get to work in the morning.

I dont have the BTL any more. But yea the sub is extremely stiff. I was just thinking that once it loosens up i should be ok considering the BTL was pretty much broken in by the time i went to the AQ. I mean its not like i turn the truck on and pop instant protect. i can play it for a good while, then the amp gets warm. then it will hit a hard punchy note a it goes protect. but other times i can play sounds like "Put on" and it will play just fine for the most part. Its not like its not playing at all. Im just concerned.

I just recently got 2 AA Mayhems. I am only using 1 right now. it is a dual 1 ohm sub. I have an AQ2200D. the sub is wired to a 1/2 ohm. My BTL 18 i had last was wired at 1/2 aswell and the amp took it all day with no problems. both coils on the BTL read .7 just as they should. With me new sub the coils read .6. they are .7 ohm coils according to AA site. Them being lower is apparently causing my amp to go into protect... I have been told 2 different stories. Some people tell me that as the sub breaks in it will cause a slight increase in impedance. Is this true? Other say it will more than likely stay the same. If you don't know please don't comment. Let me know, Thanks!
