can i hook this up at 1 ohm to a 1200 watt hifonics amp? the amp is 1 ohm stable but im not sure if im able to hook the subs up at 1 ohm.

I'm pretty sure it can be wired @ 2ohm or 4ohm. You can always check YouTube or Crutchfield usually has good explanations of how to wire your system.

I ran 1ohm with 2 of these cause they can be dropped to 2 ohms a piece when running in sequence then I sequenced both sub's together to get 1 ohm so if you have two then yes
1135625
I would not. 1 ohm is too low for this sub, its a great sub, but not designed for 1 ohm load.

I don't think that would be a good idea.. It's always best go by manufacture recommended wiring and amplification. Exceeding the power input beyond its capacity on any electronics could cause things to quite literally fry.

I have the 4000.1 version of this amp, and it has a lot of power, so yes it has a lot of power. It also depends how you wire your speakers up. You get the most power out of the amp if you can hook your subs up at 1 ohm stable. Figure out what ohms your subs are and the ohm they will be in if you wire them in parallel or in series. There's plenty sub wire diagrams on google.

Just as long as your sub and speakers watts/rms all adds up to about 300, you should be good. Bridge the sub to get more oomph. But this can have your speakers with less power. You don't want to overload your amp. IMHO, get a mono amp that will power your sub and leave this 300w amp for your other speakers. It's what I did.

No ...it is a mono amp , there are 2 speaker hook ups but that is just splitting the power ...say if you had 1 2ohm sub it would run 900 watts if you used 2 4 ohm subs it would give them 450 a piece , it is 1 ohm stable and I have even taken it to half an An ohm With No Problems By Hooking Up 2 Fosgate Dual Voice Coil Subs That Were 1 ohm A Piece ...Hope This Helps

well if your looking to go to the peak power 1600 true watts i have 2 on a 1200 watt amp and they sound good id probably get a 1500 watt mono block hifonics amp the one thats one ohm stable and wire the subs to one ohm and they will sound great

I would recommend wiring for 2ohm setup. @ 1ohm it might be pushing the speakers to the limit. Power acoustic amps are inexpensive because they have a lot of distortion so don't Max them out. I'm running 3 @ 2.6 ohms on a hifonics 1500w and they bang!

I'm no installer, but based on specs, this amp is stable at 1 ohm and should run the sub.

no. this amp will only push around 250 watts at 4ohm. It is over rated substantially. go with hifonics, best output for price.
889576
Yes. This is capable of handling 100 watts at 5 ohms. 100 watts with an 8 ohm impedance out of the amplifier will supply less current than this is capable of handling, you may need to turn the sub's volume up slightly higher for more output. My amp is a 6 ohm 100w, it's just about right.

Use a 1000w dual voice coil 2 ohm sub.U can try a solid box or band pass, if you want thump use a solid box, id you want rumble use a band pass.if you bridge the amp use a 2000w sub. dual voice coli 2 ohm, it supposed to be 1 ohm stable , but have not tried it.

With that speaker the amp has to be stable at 1 ohm I ended up changing the sub to the 4 ohm one because of the dual voice coil it has actual 2 ohm. The amp I bought was only stable at 2. Just depends on what you like truly.
1151668
I believe that is a 2 ohm stable amp so I would go with the 2 ohm speaker dual voice coil and look up the voice coil wiring online one way is seires and the other parallel make sure you wire the back of the speaker right one way is 2 ohm and other less than 1 ohm make sure its wired 2 ohm and that would give you the max watts out of your amp the other way less that 1 ohm would overheat your amp.

That is fine, your best bet is to get a sub that can be wired at 1ohm so you can get the most out of your amp.

It is a mono 1 channel amp. It is meant for a subwoofer. It is rated at 1200 watts at 1 ohm but it won't produce that many. Count on maybe 700-900 watts at ohm.

It's ok but you will need to be careful with the gain setting if u wire it to 1 ohm. And if 1 ohm doesn't sound good try it at 4 ohms. What kind of amp? Is it a monoblock? Amp makes a difference

2 ohm, I have dual 12s both running 2 ohms with a 3000 watt amp, sounds amazing and I'm still breaking it in, but 2 ohm in my eyes is for more than one sub to divi the power more equally

I have not hooked it up yet. On my receiver though I have separate sub woofer outputs. Put if you do hook it up in parallel it would be 4 ohms. Most systems are ok at 4 ohms.
