[QUOTE="Gunk, post: 8683388, member: 677707"] I'd appreciate some input on how people generally approach this issue. I currently have 3.5" Pioneer Pro Series tweeters installed in my dash. (100w RMS) I was planning on installing the 6.5" mid bass driver from the their same line in my front doors. (110w RMS) I was thinking that buying a US Acoustics Barbara Ann 4 x 100 Watts RMS @ 4 Ohm amp for these would be a good idea. I got into my door panel today and could see that I think I have space to install an 8" mid driver in the door instead of the 6.5". Pioneer has an 8" driver in this same line that I could use. It is 180w RMS. I would need to put a 3/4" thick baffle over the hole to get the depth clearance I need but it looks like my door card will still have room to go back on if I do that. *** So all that just to ask my main question. How do you guys choose an amp when speakers have different RMS ratings? I'm new to this so I there is a lot I don't know. They don't make amps that allow you to turn the gain down on just one channel do they? I'm trying to push these doors to the max as I'm going to sound treat the inner and outer skin completely with sound deadner and then make a full MLV/CCF barrier for the door card. [ATTACH type="full" alt="18631"]18631[/ATTACH] Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
