0 ohms ? DO NOT run 0 ohms!!!!!! your amp wouuld probley blow out the fuse right away anyways. Wire it a 2 ohms for more power, wire it at 4 ohm for a clearner sound, less power. What ever your preference.

i feel dumber after reading this...

yes, if you get this amp then buy the dual 4 ohm sub. dual 2 ohm would be 1 ohm load, which offers less expensive amp options but would not be best for that amp (that amp would probably make less power at 1 ohm then it does at 2).

and an sub sounding clearer at 4 ohms is bullshit, that has no relation.

only god can run at 0 ohms dude, you must be confused... the sub would not even be connected.

^^^Like he said, 0 ohms can't be done. Basically, every electrical component has a certain amount of resistance, so nothing electrical would really be 0 ohms...unless there was no power to it, in which case, there's nothing to resist; hence, 0 ohms.

I know this is OT, but the $750 you sold them for...is that more than it would be priced at an audio shop or just more than you bought it for?
