yea, i couldnt imagine 140W of sound blaring 2 ft away from me o_O. i think i may be better off running them @50W and feed the rears 50W also. i know all about the debate over front sound stage but this will do perfectly fine for now until i figure out what i am going to do about my sub situation.

I have a question about components.

When you feed the crossover 50 watts, do both speakers get 50 watts or does each speaker get 25?

Sorry to steal the thread, but it seemed to fit.

with a component set, each speaker gets around half of the power, or at least the power is divided.. not always evenly.
often the tweeters are 8 ohms to attenuate them a bit.
yeah I said to bridge the amp so you get full power to two channels for one set of separates

so if i bridge the amp to 2 channels, and the amp when bridged gives 140Wx2, does that mean the woofer and tweeter each get 75W a piece, approx?
