Just got a component set of rainbows. On the bottom of the drive it says 60 watts rms 80 peak. i dont know about the tweeter. I want to know if its ok to over power them and by how much. Might by an aq 4 x 90 ? and also when i hook them to the amp do i want the amp set to lp hp or full ? the amp will be first then x overs then to the drivers . passive set up IIRC

lmao!!! alot of people say that but its true if you have to ask DO NOT DO IT!!!!

even more so on mids and highs

EVEN MORE SO ON THE RAINBOWS do not look at peak give them rms or those speakers will blow!!! not saying there not good speakers cause my team mate had some and they sounded great but they do not un rate there speakers if it says 60 watts rms its 60 watts! not 61 or 70 60 watts!

Have you ever had your woofers blown?

If you are using the crossovers, the aq 4x90 will be fine. What series Rainbow are they?
