Can someone mod my T3-1000d's to do 1ohm?

I just got finished doing extensive tests on both the T3-1000d and the T3-500d.
The T3-1000d is two 500's in one case.
A pair of 500's bridged will do 1 ohm.
A 1000 will not do 1.5ohm or below.
power at 11.8v
T3-500x4ohm=500w
T3-1000x4ohm=1000w
T3-500x2ohm=900w
T3-1000x2ohm=1800w
T3-500x1ohm=1575w
T3-1000x1ohm=3150w but goes into protection
2 bridged T3-500's into 1ohm=3150w

I wish that my amp could do all that 1 ohm-y goodness, but it powers my sub nicely.

But can you mod your amp to do 1ohm? I am sure that it would shorten the lifespan alot, no?

amp wont even roll at 1 ohm. fast roll, slow roll didnt matter.

got about 1/6 the way up the volume then it would protect.

u need to let it play at a low volume for about 3-4 seconds and then roll it. rolling from 0 on up right away doesnt work with all amps.

Briddged 1 ohm tests

Rolling seemed to get me close to full power but would cut out as well.

I ended up bridging both sides of one T3-1000d to do the pushing and another T3-1000d to do the pulling(as apposed to each T3-1000 doing push/pull duties).
Ran for 1/2 hour at 1/2 volume without the temps going up at all, ran a cool 34 degrees. Was able to run dual 1 ohm subwoofer systems at or near full power without cutting out. Estimate power at 3150w each at 1ohm. Thats 6300w with two T3-1000d's.
Now to get a 18" quad 1.4 Atomic and run all four 1000's!!!

Now to get a set of dual voice coil twelves that get loud with 6300w apiece.
did you clamp the amps? i dont think they'll make anywhere near that much power

How were they hooked up ? what you typed dosen't make any sense to me...


I was looking at these amps... I just got outbid for a pair on ebay in the last 25 seconds...


PAS mag tested one doing close to 1400 watts into 4ohms with 13.8V in, but they did not report on output into 2ohms...
