pa-pa-platypus Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 i honestly don't know what would happen from .5 ohm to 2 at 1 ohm.. alot of is going to vary on your application but in my truck 1 amp at .25 was 1.4 db quieter than 2 amps at .5... my clamp has grown legs so i haven't had a chance to clamp the difference yet tho but what would happen if i went 4 amps at 1? (my only other option) idk but that's an expensive test i probably won't do anytime soon This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned 151.6 with single 12 at 41 hz 153.2 with 2 12's at 43 hz power: dd m4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Don't know on the meter, but two AQ3500's at .7 each sounded better than one AB750.1 at .35 on my Mayhems. Way cleaner. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
