Post Number: 2147 Registered: Feb-06 | it would be a weird impedance so there's no way to tell what the wattage would be... i honestly don't know what the impedance would end up being, but as long as you ran the sub above 2 ohms instead of under it than it should be fine... what you could do is just hook the 1000.1 up to one of the VCs to a 2 ohm load then you can just power one of the VCs... that wouldn't hurt the sub, but you would be getting virtually none of the subs potential so don't really expect wonders considering that sub needs 4kw |
