4 2ohm DVC alpine r-types wired for a 1 ohm load

Hey guys, i was wondering If i wire my 4 R-types To revice a 1 ohm load How would i power them? The subs are 700watts rms each. So would i need to add up the rms wattage and find an amp that generates the wattage in a 1 ohm load? or would i need to find a 600w 1 ohm stable amp? (* Witch i highly doubt there is *)



Just a thought, Thanks for any feed back

you need to add up, so you need 2800w at 1 ohm

add up the rms wattage and find and amp that delivers it at the final load impedance...1 ohm in this case...and fyi those are 500 watts rms each (swr 1222D)

around 2k RMS then...

the Sundown SAZ-1500D come to my mind, but prepare yourself to upgrade that factory electrical
