I know JL and DD have some, so far my favorite option is a DD S4. But I want some other options to weigh in. Looking at like 100x2 and 200x2 staggered amps. 100x2 for tweets, 200x2 for mids. |

I believe DLS made one also, but not positive at the moment. Might want to see if you can find a PG 900.7 and bridge a few channels to get the power you desire. |

Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois Braaap MX Post Number: 2487 Registered: May-07 | Why not just buy a standard 4ch amp? You will not need that full 100w anyways (unless you are planning on having a retarded amount of tweeters lol), so that pretty much rules out the point in having a staggered amp. But like you said you're entitled to your opinion. |

I ran my DD C6.5's active on a C4a for quite awhile w/ no problems at all on the DD t28's, XO 12db/oct @ 3.5k...iirc.. Got NickV in a pair of T28's after he messed up his boston tweets, and he is running the C4a active too. I am going to DD AT28's very soon though. |

Lawl, mine sounded pretty good, along with canaan's. |

Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois Braaap MX Post Number: 2489 Registered: May-07 | How much power were you guys actually pushing to your tweets? I would imagine that would be really unbalanced and kinda painful on them real high tones lol. |

125 or so per tweeter. My mids have around 150-160 on them, it balances out nice. The correct crossover settings are extremely important. |

Platinum Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 10284 Registered: Jul-06 | Agreed that the crossover changes everything. If set right the tweets would never get the full power at frequencies where it matters. I guess what I was thinking was, how many people really know enough to set everything up correct... give most people a 100w amp and pair of tweeters and they'd blow them in 5 mins. |
