I'm rather new to the car audio world so please bear with me.. I purchased 3 Alpine Type R 1221 (2ohm) subs.. I got the Alpine MRD M1000 Amplifier to power them...
Will this work? I'm thinking it might not due to the ohm load I'll be getting with those 3 subs..
its going to get a 1.3 ohm load if you wire the VCs in series and subs paralell, and that amp cannot take that low of a load so i would reccomend a different amp or different subs
I know the m1000 isn't stable down to 1.3 ohms..but is there any possible way it could maybe handle it??? Perhaps Alpine doesn't want to say 1 ohm stable because of reliablity issues?
it could very well harm not only your amp, but your subs as well. the amp would clip, prolly shut off and have the protection light come on since the load is too much, and eventually overheat and be useless. when the amp clips it creates distortion for your subs, so its not just an amp issue wiring it to 1 ohm, but also an issue for your subs. id recommend not doing it, and getting an amp stable at 1 ohm.
