Bump4life Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 nothing wrong with running half ohm daily if you have good wiring and you make sure the amp is quality and that it doesnt get too hot when playing.

ChevyBoy95 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 my two rules for running at .5 1. if you have to ask, dont do it. 2. if you do it anyway and fuck something up, learn from it and dont complain but to be on topic. STOUT electrical, everything becomes more dangerous. Low voltage is a no go.

etaks_crew Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 I have and know many people that run amps at .5 without any issues, Just have great electrical to back it up, don't let them see low voltage and keep them cool. Running at .5 causes much more heat. I touched two nedo 3500's today that were running at .5 and they were HOT as $h!t. If you can run some computer fans or some nice cross flow fans to keep air moving across them this will help a bunch to keep them cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfoodstamp Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 I ran .5 ohm daily with my Crescendo 3500 with no Issues whatsoever. Make sure you have good electrical and monitor your voltage to make sure it stays above 12 and let it rip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
