i got two dual voice coil subs that are jl. its 6 ohm each and im going to run them in parallel but im not sure if the the amp i want will handle it. i want the hifonic 1600watt brutus ones, will it work with 1.5 ohms? am also open for other amp suggestions that i should buy.

(2) 6 ohms DVC subs can be wired into 1.5 or 6ohms

since each of those subs are 300wrms that PG amp above can also work

that Hif 1600Bx can also do the trick

just one last quick question. most of the amps i checked out there only list 4 and 2 ohms wattage that the amp can handle or even 1 ohm but it also means it can handle the stuff in between also right? like mine 1.5 ohms

That JL site u posted showed that sub to 3ohms DVC

HIF 1600BX specs
RMS @ 4-Ohm: 1 x 550-Watts
RMS @ 2-Ohm: 1 x 1100-Watts
RMS @ 1-Ohm: 1 x 1600-Watts

Hif amps are said to do about 70% of rated power

@ 3ohms that would be 1/2 way between 1100 & 1600 = 1350wrms

70% of 1350 = 945 wrms ROUGHLY

hmmm - might be a bit much

check a lower model Hif amp maybe a 1500 or 1200 model the way i did here . If end result is a little above 600wrms thats ok ........i'm going to bed so u check it & i'll check u back in the morn .

note that its $31 s/h from eabay

this is cheaper cause s/h is free
