Not sure if this helps you much, but I have 3 e8v3 subs that are eating just about all a hifonics brz2100 can give them at 1.3 ohms. That is without having a DD1 or anything to set gains with, and I may or may not be clipping them, but they have never got warm and I haven't smelled anything. I blew up enough subs when I was young that I am definitely familiar with the smell too lol. I am sending them probably just under double their RMS.

From what I have read, heard and seen, Sundown seems to underrate their subs a little bit in terms of power handling capability. The SA series I can't speak much about, but if they are built better than the E series, I would guess you can give them a fair bit more than RMS as long as you are careful and don't run them all day long like that. But that is my $.02 which is probably worth a bit less than that in this case hehe.

id run 2 t1500s 40%gain @1ohm if i were you.

What do you mean by 40% gain?

The SAs to pretty well on ~1k daily. Of course, more if you know what you are doing. I've ran my 3500 to a single sa-12... Sooo... Yeah.... Pretty much down to how much restraint you have on the volume knob

40-50% gain so he's not clipping

I realize all RF amps are diffrent but mine seemed to clip around 50% gain on dd-1

Simply saying if your batt bank and electrical isnt tight then dont get greedy on the knobs.
