The Pioneer GM-X542 2 channel amplifier is not designed to run at a 1 ohm load. It is recommended to run the amplifier at a load of 2 ohms or higher as per the manufacturer's specifications. Operating the amplifier at a load lower than 2 ohms can cause damage to the amplifier and even pose a safety hazard. It's always important to consult the manufacturer's specifications and guidelines to ensure safe and proper operation of any audio equipment.
