500W RMS Stereo amp stable@1ohm??
Can anyone point me to some quality 2 channel amps that will deliver 500
watts per channel RMS into a 1 ohm load? The only 1 ohm stable amps I've been able to find are mono sub amps.a Best Regards Marcel |

I think the problem you're going to run into is that the combination of 1000WRMS total power in stereo mode *and* 1-ohm stability is pretty rare. The widespread availability of one-ohm amps is a relatively recent development, and most of the manufacturers figure that the only thing people will need 1000WRMS for is powering a subwoofer, so that's why you see so many mono amps in that range but hardly any stereo amps. What are you wanting to power with this amp? Scott Gardner |

news  flJc.403$ml.366@lakeread05:I'm thinking of installing 3 sets of CDT 6.5" cast comp mids in my whip and am kicking around the idea of driving them from one amp (wired in parallel).

Scott Gardner The 800@2 one could do about 1000 watts RMS with the alternator running... I just picked one up on ebay for $165 I got one new whenit came out for around $450 (which was a killer deal back then). -Ken |

I think the older Kicker ZR series went to 1 ohm in stereo. If they didn't,
they sure could have - much like those Rockfords that were mentioned. ESX Quantum series could go down to 1 ohm in stereo too. Both had class AB amps that will deliver 500 watts per channel. However, neither of them are made anymore. -- Mark remove "remove" and "spam" to reply "Wild Weasel" wrote in message . 97.136...
