[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 8674646, member: 540940"] I don't understand why nobody's raising a flag here... I don't think any particular amount of speaker power is "good" w/o considering the limits of the speaker, and expectations of the listener. It seems to me your objective is to power the speakers to their absolute limit, if not beyond. As I understand it you're planning to run a speaker per channel. I was not a math major, but I'm wondering if 140w on a 15w 3" mid-range might be a bit much. And your 60w 7" won't exactly be starving for power either. I think your biggest obstacle may be keeping the amp dialed back enough and resisting the urge to turn the volume knob very far clockwise. And another measly 3k for the sub?? Better get that HO alt in the mail. Whatever it is your trying to improve or solve -- I seriously doubt lack of power is the issue. [/QUOTE]
