wadewills Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 To run at .5 ohm you will need beefy electrical. Be warned however that .5 ohm will void all warranties with most manufacturers and will cause more heat. So be sure if you try it that you can properly feed the amp with electricity and keep it cool.

joshylee2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 I would not, The amp is to expensive. Plus it sounds better at 1 ohm. More stable You will end up blowing it over time at that load. power or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanSierra Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 That amp is plenty powerful at 1 ohm, you shouldn't ever go to under 1 ohm on a Fosgate amp. If you need more that 2400 watts(which I'm sure it birthed out at) get a different amp. Quote Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
