RE: Old glue formulation or newer formulation

>>>you need about the same power to drive a mid/tweeter as is used for the bass panels<<<<


I probably wasn't paying attention when this was brought up in the past but I'd like to revisit this concept. I've got a pair of Emotiva XPA-1 mono blocks on each bass panel (high current, 1000 watts @ 4ohm), no way would I even consider my mids/tweeters getting pumped with those. I use a pair of UPA-1s which are about 400w ea @ 4ohm.

The reason I mention this is I just had a discussion with M3 Lover the other day regarding a pair of Parasound JC1s on the top end of my 20s and we both felt it would be a bit of an overkill. Although it would be possible to reduce the gain on my Marchand XO, I figure that would defeat the purpose.

Just my opine, YMMV.
