[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8873525, member: 689267"] i would not worry about the tweeters. They will never see anything above 20 watts before your ears bleed. your options with 4 channels would be to use them on all for corners of the car along with the included crossovers that came with the focal drivers. Again, when you sum the total impedance of a two way, it will be closest to the large driver, so around 4 ohms in your case as the x-over is a frequency divider and it functions as a power distribution unit for each set as well. THe tweeter will have little effect on that and is more important in configuring the caps, coils used in the x-over than anything else. The 8 channel units will allow you to go fully active, bypassing the included crossovers, another plus but more expensive to do. As for combining tweeters or anything else, You never what to connect/combine/sum any of the corners with the other corners of the car, destroys any semblance of stereo right to left and front to rear stagining.
