Depends on the tweeters really. What models are you running and what amp do you plan to put on them. Im currently running active and using a CT 60.4 as a tweeter amp

Rainbow CAL 26. I don't have an amp for it yet. That's why I'm asking lol. I want to know what kind of power I need. If I get a big enough 4 ch, I can use 2 ch for the tweeters and 2 ch for the rears. Or else I could just get a smaller 4 ch and bridge it to power the tweeters only.

Or I could just get a 2 ch for the tweeters lol.

Something around 50-75rms should be fine. The 4 channel I have is running a set of PA tweeters on 2 channels and a set of silk dome tweeters on the other 2 channels. The 4 channel idea with the tweeters on 2 channels and the rear fill on the other two sounds like good plan to me... Whould be less wiring than 2 separate amps
