Will Crescendo Audio PWX 6.5 midrange pro speakers (150 rms...but I will only be feeding them 75watts through the crossover) and also CDT tweets work?

If your running only 75 watts its ok but anything over 150watts will burn the coils after u put in the crossovers adjust the amplifier for the best octave levels specifically for your speakers

these are a 4ohm but it will still work. the speakers will only get 4ohms. It will be much clearer sound. be sure to get the polarities correct. you will have good power at low volume and clarity and high volume. you will want to keep these and install them into future replacements. these will make working speakers sound top shelf. the speaker box also is a main factor. 2cm pine is ideal to use, it is light, durable, and handle sound like a violin does. speaker to box ratio is a factor too. highs and mid range is very flexible, but lows the right measurements. a cube box in relativity to the woofer is a good middle ground. Long box gives a that low comfy tone the reverberates. a short box gives that compression push. I make my own boxes, all the ones that are sold are complete rubbish. then they put high quality speakers with no 3 way crossover witch is a complete waist. Having a good box and a crossover is more important than the speakers, unless they are blown or tattered. i just have a sony house reciever, boxes i made with crossovers, and speakers i cannibalized from the dump and it is better than any thing i have herd, mainly due to the crossovers.

Well I have it pushing four 6.5 component speakers which is four tweeters and four mid range woofers and two 6x9s and it still seems like it has power to spare. I wired the back two doors with the 6x9s making the ohm rating 2. All of my speakers have 4 ohm ratings. That's the important part. This amp can be wired down to two ohms. Basically if you put two 4 ohm speakers on one channel it becomes 2 ohms. I would say you wont have a problem with this thing. I would say wire the 3.5 and tweeters with your front 2 doors and wire the rear doors with the 6x9s. That is basically my setup minus the 3.5

My speakers are rated at 125W and I have not had any issues. Even at fairly high volume my speakers sound great. Higher power generally equates to better sound and less distortion so you are probably less likely to "blow up" your speakers with this receiver.

I had to Yamaha 500 watt To 1000 watt each.am I using those speakers with a.m. QSC 500 watts and a mixer Gemini 6000 and I move those speakers very very very good very nice sounds

These speakers are very high wattage and will work well with any stronger, quality amplifier!... EQ'd properly, these speakers sound awesome!!! (Watch the "low end")!!! If you need "bass", ad "subs!...

Hey Michael, they didn't come with crossovers. On the system I ran, there wasn't a need for a crossover. Also, these speakers dont come with tweeters.

Kevin, I could not give you a professional opinion on that question because I've made comparison to my Yamaha speakers using a 450 watt amp. I have a 2000 watt VocoPro amp that I may test with them this weekend to give you an ideal of how I think they sound. Is that okay?

Yes, if you know what you are doing. You should not use this speaker, though. This is a level of hardware that requires quite a bit of tuning, and can't be used as a simple replacement. You will need a crossover, and a good high power tweeter to pair this speaker with. This speaker (it's one speaker, not a pair) should only get a 80Hz to 5Khz signal with a 12 dB / octave slope on the high end, and the steepest drop off you can manage on the low end. It's difficult to find tweeters that can handle the same wattage as these. I like to use series wired pairs of infinity 2 ohm tweeters amplified separately (4 ohm load per channel).

I have a Yamaha with 120 watts per channel. That seems like plenty of power.I don't know if I'd use less than 80. Good speakers for the money

what about speakers with 150-watt maximum input power? I'm a novice at this stuff.

The best amp wattage would be right around 3200 cause they peek at 1600 each speaker. I made the mistake of only getting a 1800 watt kenwood which is a good amp just not enough power. No matter what they will bump though

It is better to have speakers with wattage ratings higher than the receiver. 150 watt speakers will work fine with this receiver as long as they can handle 8ohms. Check the ohm ratings for the speakers, you did not say what kind of speakers you have so I can't answer that. Look on the rear of the speakers for the ohm rating.

Baig, thanks for the thought on the speakers. I'm using a brand new Onkyo 7.1ch home theater set rated 130W per channel. On top of that, I've swapped in my old Polk Audio speakers for the fronts, which are rated 150W each. So power is not the issue!

Sounds like it'll be slightly under-powered. It's always better (IMO) to overpower speakers to avoid blowing them at odd frequencies and high volumes. Power is exponentially more important than quality of speakers. Cheap speakers will sound great with an awesome power source but great speakers won't live up to their potential with inadequate or overrated ( cheap) power/amplifiers. My suggestion is overpowering your speakers about 15-20% more than the speakers are rated for. Won't matter if you don't "work" your speakers hard but under powering effects rebound of the speaker cone and can tear them apart. I believe these speakers are rated for either 125w or 150w. I matched mine up perfectly and wish I would have gotten a bigger amplifier, although they sound great but begin to struggle at very high volumes. It'll be fine if you don't abuse your speakers though.

Marc, I don't know the specs of the Wetsounds HT6 you've referred to. I'm powering (4) 6x9 3-way Polk Audio speakers with (1) channel each and a 10" Polk Audio sub with the remaining (2) channels bridged together. So far it kicks hard, (classic rock, blues & jazz)actually way more power than I need in a 22' Scarab. The only thing I don't like so far is the large size & weight of the Pyle. I read mixed reviews about the quality of Pyle amps, but decided to try it since I got it for +/-$160... Happy trails, Mark

You should do some more research as answers vary. Are you running 2channel? Bridged? Read the instructions, I don't recall the output in each mode, but it depends on the resistance of the speakers. Seems to me 250w rms speakers will do fine with that amp...
