[QUOTE="krisfnbz, post: 4053346, member: 570594"] Sorry I posted in the lounge, I didnt realize. My setup is listed in my sig.... I have a decent alpine MRPF550 powering my rainbow SLX265 comps in the front, currently giving them about 90 a door. I have some cheap alpine coaxes in the back getting like 40-50 and honestly you can barely even hear them from the front of the car.(Plus the covering absorbs the sound from the rear deck anyways for the most part.) So I have the amp running 2 4 ohms x 4. You guys recommend me to bridge the front rainbows and give them 150 a door and either ditch the rear, or just hook them up to HU Power? When I set the gains on both pairs of speakers I used a 1khz tone @ -3db Which in math world would mean the fronts are seeing about 19 on the multimeter, so when I send them 150 ir would be roughly about 24.... What do you guys think? I really like how the rainbows sound now...Does anyone have any experience with running them over 100 a door? They "say" 150 is max... and I could have swore that I read somewhere hear before that people were giving these things 150 and it was fine. Its passive by the way. Thanks guys... typically I always write my thoughts on here before I mess with anything just to make sure I dont fuvk anything up. Kris [/QUOTE]
