[QUOTE="gstokes, post: 8280616, member: 660947"] absolutely, if you have 120 watts per channel and 2 speakers per channel then 60 watts goes to each speaker, it wouldn't matter if the speakers were wired in series or parallel the power would still be split between them, now that you don't need speakers that require big power you can scale back and afford 2 pairs of 50W rms tweeters and the same or close with your woofers but the woofers will probably have closer to 60W rms ratings, you're just fine with 50W tweeters and 120 watts per channel because as the way "Trumpet" from Easy Way Electronics explained it to me i will try and explain to you.. the tweeters don't receive as much spectral energy as per say the woofer does, in a component set such as a 3-way triaxial speaker there is lot's of spectral energy in the lower frequencies and less spectral energy at the higher frequencies so the woofer would get the majority of the wattage then the midrange speaker would be next in line for a serving of power then whatever is left goes to the tweeter and everybody is happy with the amount of power they receive. Let's say we had a 120 watt channel, 60 watts might go to the low frequencies, 40 watts might go the mids and 20 watts to the tweeter, that's how it get's split up, the spectral energy get's distributed among the individual drivers according to frequency..
