keep blowing tweeters!!!!

I am by no means an expert with tweeters at all. But honestly from what I have seen tweeters peak rating can be over 10 times the rms of them. And sometimes the rms as well. most tweeters are SOO overated on power it isn't even funny. Your ext crossovers or bass blockers should be keeping this from happening. If you have these in place your setting on your amp shouldn't matter. And for the record. sensitivity has NOTHING to do with power handling and really is a pointless number

i wouldn't say pointless. you wouldn't want to mix speakers that are 10db apart or anything crazy like that. makes it a little hard to level match, especially with passive crossovers.

thats what im thinking......... the tweeters are 97 db and the comps are 88 db. Maybe i should just get a new set of tweeters that are around 88 db and see if it helps. I don't know
