MTX 1501d @ 1 ohm

New member Username: Nveselinovic16vPost Number: 7 Registered: Mar-05 | Hi all, i was wondering... How do i modify the 1501d amp to run stable at 1 ohm??? If anyone knows... Also I did run it at 1ohm for 5-6minutes and it was ok. It gave about 30-40% more output then at 2 ohm. How do I modify? |

Silver Member Username: Taylor17Kopperl, Texas Post Number: 956 Registered: Jan-05 | Can someone post a link to that amp? I could have sworn that it is 1 ohm stable, that is kind of stupid for MTX to make a 2 ohm stable mono amp. I thought the whole point in a mono is they are 1 ohm stable. lol You learn something new everyday. |

New member Username: Nveselinovic16vPost Number: 10 Registered: Mar-05 | I wanna run them at 1 ohm because of dbdrag. I wanna ge 2x2 ohm woofers, and run them at 4 for normal listening. For drag I wanna get them down to 1. but maybe get 2x4 ohm and run them all the way with full power, without risk. What do you think? |

Bronze Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 32 Registered: Dec-03 | Heres the key to getting that amp loud, i know a few competitors are gonna get mad for me letting this one out but... Look at the side if the amp for a little hole, about the size of a pencil tip. That is where you need to stick a pin into in order turn off the compressor/limitor. The amp will put out more power but its sq will go down at high volumes. As far as burping them at 1 ohm?, you can go lower than that without any mods, but also be sure to push in that little switch  |
