But would you pay more (almost twice the price) to run at 4 ohm rather than 1 ohm?

Phoenix Gold X600.1 - Phoenix Gold Xenon 600 Watt Mono Amplifier $249.99
Hifonics BXi 606 - Hifonics 1 Ch 600 Watt Brutus Amplifier $189.99
or
Phoenix Gold Ti600.2 - Phoenix Gold Titanium 2 Ch 600 Watt Amplifier $499.99
Hifonics ZXi 6006 - Hifonics 2 Ch 600 Watt Zeus Amplifier $250.99
Just a couple examples, pick your own make and models to compare.
And besides that, a mono class D will draw less than a bridged 2 channel A/B, both at 600 wrms.

IF!, you are really concerned about power consumption, you'd need to buy a much bigger amp to run at 4 ohm.
Hifonics BXi 1606D - HiFonics 1 Ch 1600 Watt RMS Amplifier $279.99
RMS @ 4-Ohm: 1 x 550-Watt
RMS @ 2-Ohm: 1 x 1100-Watt
RMS @ 1-Ohm: 1 x 1600-Watt
