[QUOTE="Drumznbass, post: 8676604, member: 677176"] Hey, ive been running Hertz esk 165.5 2 way components (120rms woofers/150rms tweeters) via the B input on the Hertz DP4 amp at 150rms set using ohms law at 26volts. the reason I use the B channel is the tops max out at 3,3k the max the tweeters can seem to handle. this was after running via A channel and going through 5 pairs of blown tweeters and 1 case of repairing blown capacitors on the crossovers. my tweeters have gone yet again so I'm upgrading to the more powerful Vibe Black Death V6 2 way components rated at 150rms / 420 max and they have tougher tweeters as well. My question is, to be safe, do you set gains to the rms or how much can you push the speakers before the tweeters pop? ive read the manuals and specs but I have no idea what the numbers mean other than rms. Are there other factors when setting gains by ohms law and osc scope when it comes to tweeters? [/QUOTE]
