[QUOTE="Elvenking, post: 8273954, member: 661211"] Humm...well....I suppose I would have to figure out a way to have all these amps in the car....that'll be a total of 3 amps. What I am wondering is how it will certainly be less power to the drivers...since technically there will be 140W going to each side (70 to mid and 70 to tweet) how that will be less power. I imagine that there is some sort of loss of efficiency in the passive crossover as well as how they get those two drivers to sum back down to 4 ohms together. I am not an expert, but I am wondering the math behind it. Don't get me wrong...hell...I can probably get the amps in there....but now I am worrying about current draw on my car...is my alternator still gonna be okay? LOL. I am trying to take a little pause on how much I am putting into this thing and it hasn't been working out so well. You see...it all started when the stock head unit in my car stopped playing CD's....and now...well it's just friggin' out of hand man....I just got done turning a couple of 90 degree pipe fittings from home depot into some sweet tweeter mounts...lol. I love it!
