[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8838105, member: 675210"] Does Focal sell that tweeter by itself at all? If so, what is its rating? To the question... the tweeter is not getting the 100w or even 75w. Depending on the components in the crossover the tweeter will be restricted on how much amplifier power is reaching it. It depends on the crossover components and crossover frequency. 100w? The tweeter may be getting 25-35w of that 100w. If running active crossover the tweeter at between 3kHz-4.5kHz and start off with 25wrms. If it sounds good bump up the gain a hair and try 35w. It shouldn't take much to get the tweeters loud. Small size, light weight body, large voice coil relative to piston size. The TN43 Tweeter from Focal is no slouch. Its nominal power rating is 15w and a peak of 100w. As in for short or quick transients. [/QUOTE]
