Connecting amps, tweeter suggestions

Would you guys say 50rms per tweeter is enough to match with the 150rms mids?

im looking at getting 4 of these cadence q75T tweeters. Any opinions on these?

 

and someone earlier said instead of using crossovers I could just adjust the lpf/hpf on the amp. Would that work fine?

The specs on sonic says that they have a built in crossover so there is probably a capacitor that comes with them or is inside them. No external crossover needed so you could run them in parallel with your midst if you wanted to. If you put a clean 50wrms on each one and you should be fine. I would put them on their own 4 channel amp and keep the gain as low as possible. Ideally your gains should be set with a DD-1 to prevent distortion and clipping. Where are you located? Maybe someone could help you out.

Oh I totally missed that.

Im in Portland or. I usually stop by stereo king for setting my gains but they charge unless they do it by ear.  It'll probably be worth it to have them set everything properly vs me just ear-balling it.

You can set it by ear, but then if you bang on it you are taking a chance.

If you put them on a separate amp, having the gain set really low will probably be just right anyway.
