Will a kicker kx 2500.1 run at 1 ohm?

Recommended Posts

Just wondering I'm not sure because they are rated at 2 ohms.

And If I had a d2 fully loaded btl wired at 1 ohm what would happen?

I've heard some people have run it a 1 ohm before, but its is highly not recommended. But if you do try it, dont dare do it with out good electric, and I mean good, not decent. I'll just sale it IMO and buy something elese

no the will not run at 1ohm and youll probably kill it if you run it at 1ohm

Not t argue... but to clarify.....

I have personally ran a pair of these amps for daily/comp. I used my pair on two solo x 10's D1 coils.. for comps I ran the pair at .5ohm for burps, for daily I ran a single amp at 1 ohm (on the pair of woofers)

So the amp WILL run one ohm... even half ohm... (for burps)

It would be better to run it at 2ohm for daily but these amps can handle 1ohm daily as long as you have the electrical to back it.

there is VERY MINIMAL power gains from running one ohm though...

So I'd suggest that you get a dual 1 ohm woofer instead of the D2. the amp will most likly last longer and run cooler, not to mention the reduced strain on the electrical..

I don't reccomend running this amp at one ohm if you're a newbie/novice... you need to understand the electrical backing that is required to effectivley run this amp at one ohm daily.
