good shit. expensive.

I have a Memphis high-current 50x2 running my subs. Stable to 1ohm MONO, under which configuration it's pushing 400-600 watts RMS. Thumps really well, never a problem. Their lower-end subs are junk though.

Not that I have a lot of experience with them, but in our area, the swap meet sells them, and they seem to have good power for your money.... but dirty....

They make good shit, We sell them where I work. Good quality, but pricey.

would 480 be a good price for the 1100 watt amp. i was offered that over the JL Audio 500/1, just wondering if its a good deal or not

i have a memphis 2channel running a set of CDT HDs...sounds so damn clean...only feeding them 100x2@4ohms...i need a stronger amp though somewhere int he hood of 150x2@4ohms...its going to be up forsale...

i've heard alot about running systems at too low of an ohm level could be dangerous for your system. this memphis amps run 1100 at 1 ohm and that sounds a little crazy for me. any feedback?

neo1

I don't know about dangerous, but I think the way it works is this:
If the amp is made to handle 1ohm mono or lower numbers it's usually a very high-current amp (draws very high amperage at peak output). This will require seperate power sources (seperate battery, altenator, definitely a capacitor) because if you put too much draw on your vehicle's 'power grid' (haha, a little blackout humor) you could fry stuff. First to go would prob be the altenator.

But with these things in place there is no danger of running at that resistance, provided you are keeping the amps cool (can be another challenge).

Again, I'm no expert, but I think that is pretty accurate....

I have heard good things about Memphis, but personally, I think that Soundstream is the way to go....good clean power, and if you shop around the prices aren't too bad.
