KevinAmirkhanian Posted January 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 (edited) Now i'm confused can I or can I not? I just googled it and somebody on yahoo got the same answer as it's not possible except for .5 2 or 8 ohms...and would it even be smart for me to do? My amp 400w @ 4 ohms 800w @ 2 ohms 1200 watt @ 1.3 ohms and it says in the manual that it is 1 ohm stable so i would like to get as much power as possible Edited January 19, 2011 by KevinAmirkhanian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
