Do sub amps sound different?

I just read something in a Zapco article where they claim 1ohm sounds muddy and 4ohms sounds better. I also hear that a/b sub amps have much better control of the woofer resulting in a better response.

Does anyone agree with this?

Yes they do with class A/B sounding better than Class D designs but it is catching up.

This is why we ALL told you to keep your ARC se4000 as it is one of the best Sound Quality Class D amps on the market and very expensive.

Isobaric - Refers to the practice of coupling two drivers together to make them act as one.

Arc SE4000 is Class H, I do believe :)

To make 1000w @ 4 ohms takes ~63v of output which means much, much faster slew and far more voltage swing as well as dynamic headroom.

Dunno if many people could hear the difference though :) Especially considering the subs/enclosures most people are running.
