Amp: 1200x1 at 2 ohms

Subs: 2 DVC 4 ohms subs wired to 1 ohm

I'm using a DMM to set the gains and my guestion is: Do I set the gains using the formula volts = SqRt of(1200 x 1) or volts = Sq Rt of (1200 x 2)

The difference is 34.6 volts for the 1200 watts at 1 ohm and 48.9 volts for the 1200 watts at 2 ohms

is the amp 1 ohm stable?

no but my dealer and a guy from pheonix gold said its ok

What you ideally need is what power that amp produces at 1 ohm.

From my past experience reading posts, it doesn't produce much more than it makes at 2 ohms. Probably about 200 more watts.
