so i blew my second kenwood kdc9104d today. i had it hooked up to two rockford p3 12's, the 4 ohm dvc's, wired to one ohm. the guy who installed it for me told me AFTER i blew the first one that my subs wired impedance jumps between 1 and .5 and my amp isnt .5 stable. i dont want to get new subs, i like my subs its just the amp thats a piece of . i can get another one under warranty, but i dont really see the point. can anyone recomend me some inexpensive .5 stable amps here in canada?

 

wire your subs up to a higher impedance?

 

no thanks, i want it loud. this amp is only good for 500 watts at 4 ohms.

 

but it would be 2ohms then...if your geting 0.5ohms , wire upwards its 2ohms by my count.

 

your expecting more than your equipment is capable of giving you

 

i guess so, the subs are fine by me, i just need an amp thats half ohm stable.

 

Is this for daily?

 

yeah for daily use, but not for hours and hours of playing at a time.

 

why not get an amp that produces your needed power at 2ohm. most amps running at 0.5ohm aren't going to be as reliable anyways.

plus, you will have a much bigger selection of nice amps if not limiting yourself to 0.5stable ones.

 

0.5 is too low for daily, this is why you burn the up. Buy a bigger amp to run at higher ohm if you are looking for more power.
