Out of interest - which manufacturers make amps that drive a 1 ohm load?

thanks

I have no tests, but understand Gryphon, Vitus should both drive those loads. No doubt there are a number of beast amps that will do so.

At what kind of power?

I can make one

Accuphase rates their amps with 8/4/2/1 ohm loads.

The H2O Audio M250 mono-blocks were designed, among other things, to drive the 1 ohm Apogee Scintilla.

My Lamms M1.1 have driven my Scintillas beautifully

It appears the new Pass A25 has "one ohm" potential. 100 watts at 2 ohms, 200 watts at one ohm. The hockey puck transistors have very high power dissipation.

The website was up just a couple of months ago. It's down now.

H2O amps were a bit of a boutique class D in the day for Apogees, especially Scintilla. Vince from Sacto (now deceased) was a rabid promotional fan. It seems the modules and topology were changed frequently with constant upgrade-itis, but that was several years ago.

I heard them on Vince's Scintillas, but he was badgering us to fall down in worship. I thought they sounded OK, but not necessarily revelatory.

Hello,

SAC" THe Amplifer" stable under 0.5Ohm 360Watt Class A Danger hot 100 Grad Celsius at the Heatsink(Name Grave Stones)

T&A 3000 Mono Amp stable under 1 Ohm

The question is somewhat meaningless without a spec for power required. Many amps will drive 1 ohm at low power; even tubes. What are you trying to drive?

1 ohm can only mean the dreaded Apogee Scintilla
