The lower the ohm load - the WORSE the lows will be.

 

ok i still dont understand but i kind of get where your coming from.

 

The difference in sound quality is not really anything to speak of. You cant hear a difference between ohm loads by ear.

The statement you heard is just a generalization. You get the better, louder lows because you see more power running it at .5ohms compared to 1 ohm. I really wouldnt bother with .5ohm for a daily driver setup. Much cheaper to just buy an amp that does the power you need at 2 ohms, compared to buying an amp and a ton of eletrical upgrades to support a .5ohm system.

Only reason people run .5ohms is because the lower the ohm load, the more power. Same reason people run 18v to their amps.... More power.

 

You can most definitely hear the difference in sound quality between .5 and 4ohms... Unless you are using garbage speakers like eminence or something similarly as horrible.

 

^^ Couldn't hear it from .5 to 2 with my BLs.

 

If both were played to before clipping, you wouldnt tell a difference. No way you would be able to tell. Especially not in a Class D amp.

 

And btw, who the hell runs a mids/highs amp at .5ohms? That doesnt make any sense, so you really cant say anything about Eminence or any other pro audio gear. Maybe thats why you might have had problems with pro audio speakers....

He is talking about a subwoofer amp (obviously), and in that case, there is a 99% chance it will be Class D, and he wont be able to tell a difference in the sound.

 

Who said anything about mids? Maybe you just don't have as refined hearing as someone who started out on home audio equipment... Theres a big difference.

Both 727 and galactic are geared towards making 6 subs fart as loud as possible, its very difficult to get two subwoofers into perfect phase at such high output yet alone 6.

 

You brought up the mids. You said that the reason you cant tell is because of "garbage like Eminence".

We dont want to make subs "fart" as loud as possible. We just like loud stuff. It doesnt have to perfectly faithful sonic reproduction.... Its just a loud car, not an award winning sound quality car. Since thats the case, you wont hear the difference.

You are putting more into this than there really is.

 

I want my subs to fart.


To add relevance...If your going to run .5 ohm,Your gonna need a nice supply of current for the amplifier to eat up.I personally am gonna change from the 1ohm setup currently,to a 2 channel-2 ohm amp,just to take some strain off all my hardware.

I recommend Sundown products,I've never visually seen them in action,but from youtube videos,and reviews..They are top notch for big power,and low ohms.
