what is this amps ohm stability?

Pretty good I play loud bass songs four hours never has turned off at high volumes does. Get very hot

I haven't tried it at .5 but the amp is rated only 1 ohm. I have it pushing 2 l5 12. It is a very strong amp

Amp wants a 4 ohm load, and performs best at that resistance. How many terminals does your sub have (I presume 2) and what are the drivers' impedance? Whatever you do, you MUST attain a 4 ohm NET resistance

it would fry them if it could run at .5 lowest i've been able to run it was .79 (.8)ohms any lower and it goes protect. it fried my friends type r 15s at 1 ohm. if you're still looking at getting this amp then runs it in 2ohms and give it a try.

Running 2 subs on individual amps in my setup - 2500 watt peak mono class D - 2 ohm stable @ 2500 peak, 130+ db at headrest, no issues.

Don't know specific amps but has not damaged any equipment. Please google mfg website.

1000-1500 RMS stable at 2 ohms is what I would go with. Stick with a good mane brand that advertises there power in RMS

I'm no installer, but based on specs, this amp is stable at 1 ohm and should run the sub.

Yes im running 2 12in comp Rs at 1 ohm there's plenty of power.best amp ive had so far no problem gets a little hot at 1 ohm but doesn't overheat and go to emergency shutoff

Amp is actually certified @ 626 watt rms opposed to the 500 it states.. I'm running with a 12" single ported fosgate p3 and so far no overheating as I push max for about 80 mins each day to n from work. Not sure exactly if it is 1 ohm stable but the p3 is dual 4ohm and sounds amazing..although the amp box states 300x1@ 4ohms- 500x1@2ohms given the split it should run at least 800@1 but I'm no amp expert.. Hope this helps.. When all else fails call RF tech sup :)

It has a 200 ohm scale, that displays down to tenths of an ohm. Acccuracy at very low values unknown as mine shows 0.6 ohms with probes shorted.

Look at the power supply, it should have a voltage shown on the label, then use a Volt Ohm Meter (VOM) to check the voltage. If it reads at or slightly higher than the rated voltage then it is probably OK and the problem is in the amplifier. It could be either unit causing the problem.If it is still in warranty you might be better off to get an RMA from the manufacturer and return it for repair or exchange.

It really doesn't matter whether they are 4ohm or 8ohm... most amps can handle a 4ohm load without any trouble. Having said that these are 8ohm speakers.

With that speaker the amp has to be stable at 1 ohm I ended up changing the sub to the 4 ohm one because of the dual voice coil it has actual 2 ohm. The amp I bought was only stable at 2. Just depends on what you like truly.

It sure is, it makes 1000rms @ 1 ohm, I have a precision power pro sub wired at 2 ohms, so the amp is seeing a 1 ohm load and it works perfect

Impedance is the resistance or load that the speaker presents to the amp. Most amps do fine when the speaker is 4 ohms. If the speaker presents a 2 ohm resistance to the amp the output of the amp doubles because it's pushing against half the resistance. Some amps may not be stable at 2 or even 1 ohm. As the impedance goes lower output increases, but you can lose sound quality, and if it is very low you can sometimes damage equipment. You can also look up series and parallel wiring if you're going to wire more than one speaker into each input. The alpine speakers here are 4 ohm speakers. This means they are safe for most amps/ radios. Definetly all aftermarket radios.

Yeah they say it's stable at one ohm but when I hooked up two kicker 15" L7 dual 4 ohm woofers wired them parallel and the amp started smoking and shut off after a couple min. So I through it in the garbage and spent the money and got a Memphis 1500x1 and have not had any problems yet. Last DB reading was 144.8 in a jeep xj. Maybe I got a lemon amp or something but I will never waste money on a boss amp again it was really weak it's prolly more like a 500 watt amp not 5000 the Memphis 1500 walks all over it with out any problems
