How much power is recommended for tweeters for sq setup
How much power is recommended for tweeters for sq setup
Got an Audison VRx 4.300 powering my active setup which consists of Focal K2P mids and TN-53 tweets amp currently running all 4 speakers
Gets really hot so i'm thinking mids not getting enough tweets probably not using most of what they get so i'm thinking of getting a small amp just for the tweets and bridging amp to 2 channel mode for the mids.
Should i do that ? And how much power do tweeters really need ?

I had audison LRX amps about 5 years ago. they got really hot and eventually cut out.
I returned/exchanged them for Alpine amps.
Im assuming these audison amps dont dissipate heat very well.
Use 1 amp for tweeters, and 1 for mids. That's what Im doing.

I've used 20 watts/channel on the tweets (rated for 100 watts rms) with 120 watts to the mids with excellent results. In fact I still needed to attenuate the tweets a little (-3db) to blend better with the mids.
i run 75watts to my tweets, 150 to each of my 6.5s times 4 and 4000watts to my subs and everything is very balanced.... so is 50 to little is 200 to much... depends on the speakers the build, music content, ect.. but i like between 50-100 watts for tweets...
i really never want to underpower a tweeter as clipping eats them but two much power can always be tonned down to appropriate levels...
