Try a plate amp. Google it and you'll see. 1 ohm will be tough to find. |

Many stereo professional amplifiers have the capability to bridge or parallel their outputs, allowing for flexibility in what is connected to them.
Parallel outputs would allow twice the current to flow, so should allow 1-ohm. |

Most any of these should supply enough current.
Why would anyone want to deal w/1ohm?

You can wire them in series or parallel.
A pair of 2 ohm drivers in parallel is 1ohm while in series, a more reasonable 4ohm.
DVC woofers can be wired either way, too, depending on the available amp. |

Very few, if any, amps will drive a 1ohm load. |

Nuck, there ARE a few which will easily drive 1 ohm loads.
Lincoln
Hobart
Miller
All will drive very low impedence loads.
You could probably even weld with them! |
