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

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.
