[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8718914, member: 650438"] oh my bad then you'll be doing what i said with the front JBL comps. Always have more power than you need because if you dont have enough power and you try to get loud, you'll be clipping the signal and blowing up the drivers from a dirty signal. What you think is the driver's limits right now is actually your amp's clean power capability limit. Just for reference my tweeters are 80 rms, i'm using 145 rms to them and they love every bit of it because I never get close to clipping and i get the output/SQ i want. you can get away with a 4 gauge to two 8 gauge distribution block if you get a pretty weak amp. I'd always recommend more and by going thin on the wire you'll be reducing some output and performance of the amp so its your choice if you want to make that compromise. If you do go 1/0 you can recycle your current 4 gauge run for that. You can also add a small battery in the back and have that as your distribution block as well if you want to go all out. btw this is my midbass with the crescendos. They are pure midbass drivers, not really good for anything above 2000hz, can reach 28hz if you remove the high pass filter. [MEDIA=youtube]iYpbeLHrB-k[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
