cheese20323 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I just asked rusty about this and he said he would not recommend running the 175.4 under 2 ohms. He said the 4 channel does run a little warm and dropping lower than 2 ohms could cause it to heat up and do funky things. 4 channels are like strapped amps. So if you have a 2 ohm load you have 2 1 ohm loads. So if you got to 1.34 ohms each amps would be like at .625~ ohms thats low!

They can only be ran at 2 ohms why? Because each amp is getting 1 ohm...So pushing a 4 channel under 2 ohms is like pushing a mono under 1 ohm.

OrionStang Posted August 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Rusty said they run a little warm LMFAO. This bitch gets hot as fawk. Anyway, I've changed plans again (surprise, I know) and will have a 3-way component set per channel.

It would save everyone from breaking noses because of repetitive facepalming.

CJ18 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Just posting the info I was told. If someone wants to run lower than 2 ohms please post results. Personally I am not going to take a chance with mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
