I have a Pioneer GM-D510M mono amp that is 2 ohm stable, BUT I want to run 3 4ohm 12" subs in parallel, which would make the impedance 1.33ohms, my question is, what is the likelyhood that the amp will survive this load? Should i even try or is it a guaranteed meltdown? |

It won't even push them, it will go into protection. No meltdown, but no sound either. |
