[QUOTE="1aespinoza, post: 8752858, member: 654802"] Yes, the tweeters come with their own filter, let them be. The 6x8s can handle a full range signal without issues. Wired in series means when the Negative of one speaker goes to the Positive of the other. This raises the impedance so the amp puts out less power. Tweeters and mids are usually wired parallel, it does not adversely affect the impedance load. So with two tweeters and two mids wired in parallel, your final resistance reads around 2ohms. The tweeter's filter will prevent low frequency, so no worries. Wire all in parallel and you are set. Each set of speakers (2mids 2 highs) can handle 70w RMS. The amp powers 120w RMS @2ohms per side.
