Active setup power requirements

[f150sqguy]

Hey all, first post for me. So, I have hertz hsk 165XL components, and want to run them active with a bit one or bit ten... My question is, is 75w to tweets and 200w to mids too much power? also, I've heard there is distortion when bridging a 4chan to 2chan, whats the verdict on that. Basically, I want to install 2x kenwood xr400-4 (75w by 4 and second bridged at 200w by 2) last 2 channels probably unused on unbridged 4 chan for now till I go 3-way or run rears through a processor if I feel like it. Also I may upgrade comps to hertz mille mlk 2 TW, which can handle more power, its more the tweets I'm concerned about, and the bridging of a 4chan.

no worry about distortion when bridging. a good amp will have low enough THD regardless.

but your amplifier choice will determine the end result. You have nice speakers, but instead of buying MLK, buy a better amp. Look at Audison amps. a LRx6.9k is a nice choice for your current and future plans.
