    Thanks Stan. that's what I was going to do, as I'm not sure what the differences between the 1200 and the 1200 II are, besides the II is a newer model??

    I believe its mainly power supply changes. And parts brand changes.

    Talked to Tony @ Parasound and yes the amp will handle the 3-3.5 ohm load but suggested not to go any lower. Thanks
