MTX 3002 at 1.5ohm

[fiveabi]

Hello,

Hey guys, i got a mtx 3002, it runs 300watts rms at 4ohm, and 400rms at 2ohms, but my desire is to hook it up to a dvc 3ohm subwoofer, so the load will be 1.5ohm.

Could this work? what would happen?

thanks,

it might be too much of a load for ur amp, ur definitely going to be putting a huge strain on ur amp to get the extra juice out...and jus like any amp thats running at a low impedance, ur gona run into heat issues and possible clipping depending on how much power the amp is handling...

i would like to get 350watts out of it. I could turn the gain down. and what is clipping?

thanks dood.

do it, you shouldn't cook it, if its too much it should just go into protection mode.

your amp will fry, it's rated at 300x1@4ohm it will not do 1.5 ohm Mono for very long.
