What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load


Just asking.

I see specs into 4 ohms but nothing into difficult speaker loads (like Thiel CS5's).

Thanks for listening,

Spectron Musician III mk2 mono blocks - I believe they will provide around 300 watts at 1 ohm - or it might be at 0.5 ohm -   I used a pair with ML CLX for many years with fantastic results - but these are only avail used -  they will drive just about any speaker

Once again this means nothing, give us the clipped wattage at 8ohm 4ohm and 2ohm and 1ohm, only then will you know if it's being current starved (sagging).

600 at 8ohms.  800 at 4 and 1300 at 2 ohms - it does not double the power when halving the impedance - but it is apparently stable at 2 ohm   

I’m not an electronics engineer - but the specs are in the link - I just know that these sounded great - but I never cranked the volume - as the room is too small -  they deliver lots of current 
Sorry - the specs above are for stereo single amp - the power is considerably more in mono block configuration

No it’s "not bad" for a class-D, nowhere near doubling still, at least it goes up as the impedance goes down, too many either don’t go up at all at 2ohms or go backwards. "Could" be ok for the OP’s speakers if it's to be believed, and "may" get the best out of the low impedance bass they have.
600 Watts at 8 Ohms
800 Watts at 4 Ohms
1400 Watts at 2 Ohms

It will be interesting to see with independent tests if they give it to someone like Stereophile, if they have "underquoted the 8ohm and 4ohm" to make the 2ohm look as good as it is. As many manufacturers are doing that now, that you can see that on Stereophiles bench tests, it one way of making the amp look to be doubling, and it’s wrong (lying) and should be stamped out.

Sorry - the specs above are for stereo single amp - the power is considerably more in mono block configuration

If these are bridged stereo’s into mono’s? (probably as they give no specs) if so they won’t even do as good as the stereo amp in doubling down.
