I wouldn't run it at 1 daily. It could or it couldn't blow. I wouldn't take the risk. I am, however, probably going to run one at 1.5 ohms :-)

I've heard of them getting messed up like that. I'd really get a different amp, or different coils.

well i run both me ZX1000.1's daily, and let me say they have not gotten the least bit warm yet, no problems or nuttin so i would think its safe, but the question is do you have the charging system to back it up?

I didn't know you had dual 1 coils... You can't run a 1 ohm load to that SSX anyways. Get the Kicker.

i am going have the ssx on it which has dual 1s.

but when i get the amp...i will also want to test my btl on it. my btl is dual 2.

i dont have the charging yet but i will prior to installing that equipment.

i am holding off on buying an alt because i am debating on whether or not i should keep my car. i dont want a trunk anymore but i dont really want something that gets 14 mpg either.
