You could get some 8ohm tweeters and wire the two tweeters for a 4ohm load to each side, then connect to the crossovers. I believe that each tweeter would recieve half the power though. Hope that makes sense, and if it doesnt can someone clarify or correct me.

why would you want 4 tweeters? that would do nothing but damamge your imaging!!! and having your tweets so far from your woofer is going to drag out your imaging furthur more making everything sound like complete garbage...

hope this helps some

its really not far from my woofers.....my box comes up to the back of my driver and passenger seat.....so its only like 2 or 3 feet away

higher quality speakers + plenty of clean power > multiple speakers

Stay with 2. If you don't get the sound you're looking for, instead of adding two more, switch to something besides Kenwood.

Run the wires from the radio or amp to the crossover and then to the tweeters. If the tweeters have a bassblocker installed just run the wires straight to them no crossover needed.
