[QUOTE="Gary S, post: 1924807, member: 568291"] Components can get louder because they can almost always handle more power. More watts equals more SPL, everything else being equal (which it never is, LOL!) For one thing, there is a lot more room in the separate crossover box that comes with them for a complimentary crossover that can handle that power. Most coaxes have a very crude tweeter crossover (a single capacitor) that is more of a tweeter protector than a real crossover, and is not even a very good tweeter protector when it comes down to it. We have components in the $150.00 range that people are putting more than 300 watts to... try that with a Rockwood coax! [/QUOTE]
