Posted May 3, 200916 yr Well I have an AQ 1200d, I plan on running at .5ohm but with impedance rise I should be right at if not a little bit above 1ohm. I am wanting a sub that will just get nasty loud, and move some air. Its going in a 2-3^ft3 with 80sq inch of slot port. I am either going with a fully loaded SSD or stock BL....
May 3, 200916 yr Bad idea.Get dual 2ohm coils and wire in parallel.You will break stuff..amp and sub both running at a .5ohm nominal load.SSD won't like that kind of power either in the wrong hands...
May 3, 200916 yr Author with box rise i wont be at .5ohm and it wires down to .7ohm usually thats why i was adding all the options to the SSD to see if it was any better

May 4, 200916 yr Author just so i can get this right,it would be better to run the amp above what its built to run at?
May 5, 200916 yr It's obviously better than below. But you need a BL. The sub will need to handle the abuse you will undoubtedly send it.
