ok so i was thinking of picking up a set but first i have one quick question about components
component speakers sets come with tweeters drivers and crossovers. when you power the components do you have to amp the tweeters up to? like would you need a 4 channel amp for 1 set or a two channel?
and what amp would you suggest for them? the new ones take 100 rms. thanks in advanced guys

If they are passive components then you only need a 2 channel for a pair, if you are running them active then you need a 4 channel. What ohm load are you looking for 100wrms at and what budget?

"passive components" means running with the crossover that is given for the set.

Steve said an 55.4 bridged would be the best, e.g. 150 wrms. I'm not thinking of elite components.

2ch is fine, 4 ch bridged would be the same. if you bridge you will need Y connectors for the RCAs to control fade and balance.

If you look at my utube vids that is two sets running off one 85.4.

we will have plenty of 85.2 and 85.4 in approx 2 weeks

the comps are very efficent and sound excellent. They are also offered at a very good cost right now.
