[QUOTE="ace_800, post: 7802045, member: 554627"] Means they are rated to handle 50rms and are 8 ohm speakers. So hooking them up to your radio I'm not sure if they can see 8 ohm as most headunits power at 4 ohm. So if it can handle the tweeters through your deck you are running them at half the power the deck is rated at. Say the headunit is 20x4, the tweeters are seeing half that. Honestly IMO, ditch the tweeters all together. Run the 2 way kickers off the amp as they already have tweeters mounted on them. If you want better, go with a component set up front. [/QUOTE]
