im planning on buying 2 alpine type r 12" which are 500rms each, either the dual 2 ohm to conectem at 2 ohms or the dual 4 ohms to connect them at 1 ohm. so here is my question. it is there a risk on running the amp at 1 ohm? (the amp is 1 ohm capable)like burning my car or frying my amp?. i will be using 4gauge cable.
thanks |

If it's 1 ohm stable, then no, no increased risk. |

lol. If its 1ohm stable your ok. be sure you get 2 dual 4ohm subs though. |

You'll be fine if you run 2-Dual 4 ohm subs in parallel which will give you a Ohm load of 1. |
