[QUOTE="1aespinoza, post: 8894052, member: 654802"] They are not running at 2 Ohms. When you add a passive x-over to the mix, the spectrum gets divided. The mid plays from 100Hz-8kHz while the tweeter plays the rest. That way they have little overlap and do not double the sound too much. So if the amp is 80w per channel, then the mid is getting 80w and the tweet is getting 80w but not 160w total. The amp will "see" a 4 Ohm load. [/QUOTE]
