[QUOTE="BradyT88, post: 2379145, member: 572073"] I have a Jensen amp that is a 300.4, so it drives 75 RMS per channel at 4 ohms. well I had an audiobahn 3 way 6x9 hooked up to it. The speaker is rated at 225 RMS and at 4 ohms, it has a passive crossover also. well I bridged it on my amp so that it was recieving 150 watts RMS and it started smoking and blew. I didn't even have the amp turned up to drive the full power to the speaker. Well I just assumed that maybe they overrated the speaker. I had a Boss Audio TW-50 tweeter, also rated at 225 RMS watts but at 6 ohms. I bridged it and it just quit working. Could you please explain why this would happen? Any help would be well apreciated.
