1500D .75ohm Daily

[mlstrass 1]

Going to be installing a HD315 that's dual 1.5ohm VC's. Getting it for a good price, otherwise if buying new I'd just have gotten a dual 2 ohm.

I have a 200a alt, SVR batt up front, Deka Intimidator in back, BIG 3 in 1/0, amp wiring is 1/0, gain set with DMM.

Is there anything else I need or need to know as I've never run an amp below 1ohm. It's a daily driver and 99% of the time I listen at moderate levels, meaning you can talk in the car with the stereo playing, but once in a while I plan on leaning on it pretty hard when playing music, NO burps, just cranking some tunes to unwind after work. What's considered safe: 5 minutes, 20 minutes, doesn't matter???

I just don't want to damage the amp, even though I have the warranty down to .5ohm, I'd like to never have to use it by doing things right in the first place. TIA....Mike

Mike,

Sounds like you are better prepared to run it under 1 ohm than 99% of the people that do I don't imagine you will have a problem as your electrical system sounds very solid.

I'll be sure to take some pics of the build. Last few boxes I've done I didn't take any pics as I just needed them finished, so they could be picked up.

got your electrical equipment in place before your actual setup, impressive. Most people are too eager to do so.
