[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 2296082, member: 550915"] Good speakers and amps are transparent. They don't care if the music is different, they only reproduce what they are given. The likely reason that they don't seem as loud is either because as suggested things are not set up correctly or that the lack of distortion makes them seem like they are not as loud because they don't hurt your ears. You're missing something. It doesn't work the way you seem to think. You can wire the pair of mids to the crossover but unless the crossover is configured correctly it will not work as it should and the division frequency will be totally out of whack. In addition, if you have two mids wire in parallel, the amp will see a two ohm load at the freqs where they are playing. Chances are that your amp isn't going to like that 2 ohm load when bridged.
