Posted March 18, 200718 yr Hello everyone, I am trying to decide if I should just get an amp that will do full power at 2 ohms or order a D1 BL 10 and a recone for my BL 10 with the universal option.My current amp is 1 ohm stable, it "Can" run at .5 but only if my electrical system can support it, which it cant because its all stock.So, on to the real question, if I just order another BL 10 D2 and run my eD 9.1 at 2 ohms for 900 to 1000 watts rms, will my BL's still sound decent with only 500 watts rms.I know underpowering will not hurt a sub unless you clip, I know the recommended rms for the BL is 1000 rms, I know I should have considered all of this BEFORE I ordered my BL in D2.But I had planned on getting an amp that is stable at 2 ohms and wont kill my stock alt, I am hoping I can find something that will do at least 2000 watts at 2 ohms.But in the meantime, until I can work up the money for the new amp, I should be cool underpowering them right?I already have 1 BL 10, I am planning on ordering the 2nd hopefully this Friday!, I had my box built for the 2 BL's, it was built custom for 2 BL 10's 2cuft tuned to 35hz.I cant run the single BL in my new box though because its a common chamber so the second cutout would act as a big port!Anyway, feel free to leave your opinon or comments, Nick/Scott/Shawn, let me know what you suggest.

March 18, 200718 yr Yep its fine to under power them, just don't get volume knob happy and clip the amp
