I never had any luck with the xplodes, because they did just that. 1 ohm pulls more from the amp than 2 ohm. your amp will be fine at one ohm, I have a Matts Pro audio 3000.05 on 2 jl w6s, I am bout to buy 2 Incriminator death penalty 12s and the ever famous 10kw rms mono block kicker warhorse amp.
