[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8667118, member: 650438"] you burned stuff because you completely clipped the amplifier forcing it to try to produce power it doesn't have a chance of producing which creates excessive heat in your speaker voice coils which blows your speakers. Doesnt matter what the RMS rating for speakers is, if you fk up the signal you'll blow **** up. You literally bought waaaay too weak of an amp for the speakers you are trying to run and you cranked it up distorting the signal because you arent happy with the output. Note when i say distorting the signal, it doesnt mean you will hear audible distortion like buzzing or static, you wont hear it, you'll just smell it burning. if loud is your main thing, get some 4 inch super tweeters, and some pro audio 6.5s midranges with 94 db sensitivity or higher. For some budget sh*t you can do some ct sounds neos or skar fsx8s or prv 6.5s, Your kenwood should have some tweeter high pass crossovers for the super tweeters, use the highest number crossover available and adjust the slope till it sounds good then EQ the rest out. The kenwood doesnt have bandpass capabilities so you'll just have to leave the mids wide open only with a high pass. You dont really need to use any crossovers from your other sets. As for an amp, get a pioneer gm 8604.which will be WAAAY more power than that power acoustik. PS that power acoustic only makes 30 x 2 clean watts at best, its a bottom of the barrel extreme garbage amp with fake numbers to trick noobs to dont know better. [/QUOTE]
