Power Difference between 1ohm and .8ohm

On a Rockford Fosgate T10001bd how much power difference is there from 1 ohm and .8 ohm ?

I know it is rated at 1000+ watts at 1ohm

and some T10001bd amps as much as 1300 rms at 1ohm

but lets say you have one that only does rated power at 1000 rms at 1ohm would it be safe to say you would get around 1200rms at .8 ohms?

You wouldn't even tell the difference between 200 Watts

That is not the point.. I am wanting to find out the power output at .8ohm for reference :)

I did not know if anyone knows by experience or can give a ruff estimate. I don't have the equipment to do the testing my self.

With impedence rise you'll probably never see .8 ohm.

exactly, we cant really answer the question because who knows what the true impedance will be. lol...if u cant tell the difference it wont rly matter. obviously it will put out a little more power ....

there is no definite answer because of variables such as voltage drop and impedence rise but with a good electrical i would guesstimate between 100 and 200 watts but the only way to tell for sure would be to clamp it.

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)
