Which basic amps can drive 1 ohm loads ?

dont agree with praudio one CLASSE DR3 VHC (45 WPC) is not anoff to run those beast. at least one each side maybee....
-it seem that the kma 100 ,old krell do a good job....

ProSound amps (Crown,etc) were suggested by Gmood1, and it is true that they are generally designed to function with low impedance loads, and include self-protection features if you abuse them too much. However, I note that their distortion specs (for some of the latest models, quite respectable into 8 and 4 ohms) increase greatly with low impedance loading. Is this also true of the audiophile amps mentioned above?

So, Seadog, how did you come by Scintillas, and what shape are they in?

There is a lot of help available.

I am powering mine with the X600. These are 150 pound monos that idle at 600 watts.

Seadogs, I recall seeing a prior post by you where you had horns (Avante-Gardes)? Quite a turnaround, to say the least!! Muralman, do you have the website for the Apogee users group for Seadogs, I think it would be very useful.

See my first post.
