Sae-1000D at .5ohms??

[mrbobian 0]

Just wondering if anyone has run or seen a SAE-1000D at .5ohms? I'm thinking of doing this but not quite sure yet. any opinions?

Daily? I wouldn't. For a burp then sure.

i think it would pop the onboard fusing, remember the SAE line of amps is entry level and isn't built to the same abuse specs of our beloved saz's lol

is there any way how I could set it up for daily? Like just keeping the gain down low enough or something like that? I really don't want to get a new sub but it needs more power than what my Kenwood is giving out.

It has been done but I don't suggest it due to no warranty coverage or support for that load.

we had a local guy running one at .5 for a long time, but I wouldn't suggest it. Just because he got away with it, doesn't mean you'll have the same luck.

As an avid amp abuser, I would not suggest trying this. It takes a crap load of math, a really good charging system etc. Not to mention that due to impedance rise its probably closer to .7-.8 ohms actual load, and that is before things start getting toasty. (I could probably cook eggs off of my amps if I ran them as low as I was running my strapped saz-1500d's after playing some jazz for 20 minutes, lower impedances are very hard on electrical systems and generate a ton of wasted heat)

Wow... now i'm really discouraged. So pretty much i'm left to getting a new sub. PISS!
