Right now I was (2) Dual 4 Kicker CVXs and (2) Dual 4 Treo TSXs - All 12" - Runnin' off a KX1200.1 @ 0.5 ( All speakers wired down to 2ohm ).... If I was to re-wire them all to 8ohm:

1) Would I lose power?
AND
2) Would I bump alittle harder? ( doubt it, considerin' i'll be @ 2 instead of .5 )

I had them in a 4 12" box SEALED. All are firin' towards the trunk. The outer chambers ( Treos ) are about 1.3-5cu... and the inside chambers ( CVXs ) are about 1.5-8cu.... HELL they might be the same, I DON'T KNOW! soo...

if you re wire them to 8 ohms you would barely see any power from that amp.

dj hows the temp of the amp since its supposedly only 1 ohm stable.i want to run my kx 600 down to 1 ohm but its 2 ohm stable.if the amp is takin your .5 load ok id leave it there.if its an alternator issue then wire em all to 8 that give you like you said 2 ohms that would only pull 600 watts out of the amp.
