Doesnt matter as long as properly setup it would work the same way so no. Some prefer brand matching but you could have different amplifier, tweeter, mids, crossover and it would work fine as long as it's all matched to work and setup right.
Are your drivers 8 ohm? Are those crossovers designed for 8ohm drivers?
as long as the xover points are correct for the components you'll be fine

So I can just tune the amp for that mid woofer then the tweeters crossovers will work for the tweeter and there be no problems......cause the way I said I wanted to do it it seems like people are telling me yes and some noQuote:
