he also had some protect issues using them that low. But im pretty sure he took care of it with more wires and such.

strong amp, but just like any other amp of its caliber one has to know how to use it, otherwise its pure head aches and no spl.

We tried them strapped at .5 before rise and they would go into protect right away. The lowest we got them to work was at .75 before rise strapped they held no problem. Dont go to crazy and wire them the wrong way if they catch fire i feel bad for u cause u will have nothin but paper weights have fun. Congrats on your new amps.
