Multichannel amps that can drive low impedances?


A friend has asked for advice on a multichannel amp to drive some speaker designs he is building...he wants a multichannel amp good down to 1 ohm. Budget is around $3000 used.
I've never heard of one...any advice? If nothing else I guess I could tell him to get some older Krell monos.

Correct Sogood51...Three CarverPro ZR1600 will give you six channels for less than three grand.

I had an experience where I screwed up the wiring in some speaker cables so that a short of about one ohm existed. Paralleled with this was the 4 ohm Maggie. Would you believe that the darned thing kept on playing reasonably well so that I had a bit of a time finding the problem. It did shut down for a few seconds every so often due to the self-protect feature, but in between shutdowns the sound was almost normal.
