So i've been pondering with this issue for a few weeks now... I have 2 MA Audio MA150XE wired in parallel to produce a 1 OHM load. now, if i have an amp that will push 1200 watts @ 1ohm hooked up to these bad boys, will each speaker be pushing 1200 watts? or is it divided between the two to produce 600 watts each? It probably isn't a complicated question, but i can't figure it out..
