[QUOTE="1aespinoza, post: 8842776, member: 654802"] Best bet is to wire the all in parallel and put a multimeter to them. From what I have been told, when you put a x-over into a midrange/tweeter combo, the voltage is not split but rather shared as it were only 1 speaker. In other words, if you feed the combo 500 watts, the tweeter will get 500 watts and the midrange will get 500 watts. Not 250 and 250. So in your scenario, the combos will bring the 8 Ohms impedance down to 4 Ohms because of the x-overs. Each tweeter would get 500w and each midrange 500w.Tweeters will actually split the 1000w since they are playing the same frequencies, same for the mids. Mind you, this does not mean you will be playing 2000 watts, but rather 1000 watts @4 Ohms. I hope this made sense, it is how it was explained to me. [/QUOTE]
