i dont think you can run them at 1 ohm i think you can only run a 2 ohm load with D4s you gotta have D2s to run a 1ohm load.

I think it goes like this if im wrong please correct me.

4ohm coils-8 ohms and 2 ohms
2ohm coils-4 ohms and 1 ohm
1ohm coils-2 ohms and .5 ohms

what amp,? they are somewhat of an older sub. They will handle a lil more that 500 on each w/o any problem.. I liked my old pair. I remember them being a lil punchy but that was a long time and many many systems ago.
