1 ohm load 1 ohm wired.

so i just wired down my fi q 15 to 1 ohm.. and it hits every note really hard.. and i mean really hard.. but it doesnt sound to clean.. its in a sealed box 2.3 cf could it be because the ohm is set to low? should i have left it at 4 ohms?

you wont hear a difference between 1 ohm and 4, there is probably just too much power going to the sub and its unloading or something. turn the gain down

How did you set your gain on the amp?

true fact!!

You shouldn't be able to hear a difference between a 4 ohm and a 1 ohm load. Are you sure your gains are set right?

You're probably driving the sub into distortion. Turn it down before you blow it.
