so i have a RF BD1000.1 that is 2 ohm stable, do u guys think it could handle a 1.7 ohm load? im sure it will do it but im not sure if it will last long :lol:

Survey says... it'll get hot and go into protection.

It's pushing it's limit at 2 ohms, taking it to 1.7 probably will be more than it can take unless you keep the volume down some or cut off the lower frequencies. The higher the frequencies you're reproducing the higher the impedance will be.

i used to own a couple or 4 of them. and they will run at one ohm. make sure it gets some airflow cuz they do get hot.

Yeah...I was gonna say you can probably run it at 1.7....just gonna have to take it easy on it.




RE Audio

Most amps will run at 1.7 oms even if there 2 oms or 1 orms. It depends how you have them wired to the speakers. I had a pionier 1600watt 4 ohm runing to 3 x 10" MTX comps. They way i had it wired the amp pushed out at .33 ohms belive it or not. The amp ran hot as hell and lasted for 8 months. The sound of those speakers running at .33 ohms was nice for that short time.

well i switched the wiring and turned the gain jsut below 1/2 and i wasnt happy at all, IMO it hit harder when i had it wired at 4 ohms :hsughwigg i turned the gain up slightyl and it started to stink so i turned it off and wired it back to 4ohms and i think its going to stay this way until i fix my hifonics amp
