I just bought an alpine mrd m500. I need to know if it will drive 2 dual 2ohm L5 solo barics?

[jeverett]

whats the RMS on the amp and speakers??

also make sure when you hook them up, you do it in a way that doesnt go below the amps impedance ie..1ohm

[golfdude316]

600 on subs and 500 on amp

[golfdude316]

can I go below 2 ohms with the amp or will it burn it up? It says its 2 ohm stable so I dont want to push it!

It's really not recommended, the amp will probably go into protection and turn itself off. If it doesn't actually turn off, it will heat up and may eventually cause it to burn out.

If your amp says that it is 2 ohm stable you should be able to pound on it at 2 ohms for as long as you want. As with any amp if it is in a confined area and doesn't have fresh air then it will get hot and shut down. Running it at 2 ohms will cause it to heat up quicker but if you have good air to the amp you will have no problem. Now the fun part is going to be wiring them so your amp will see 2 ohms. You will need to run your each sub in series and them parrallel them at the amp. This will essentially give you two 4 ohm subs that when connected to your amp will parrallel down to 2 ohms. If you not certain how to do that then let me know and I will sketch something out to e-mail you.

Here is a link on how to wire your subs. You want to use option #2.
