Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

sub 30 watt compression drivers

i don't know where i saw the 15w compression driver, but i did find a bunch rated 25-30w at PE

RCF ND1411-M (25w $120)

Radian 450PB-8 (25w $140)

Radian 475PB-8 (35w $187!!!)
http://www.parts-express.com/radian-475pb-8-1-aluminum-horn-driver-8-ohm-2-3-bolt--294-702

Peavey RX14 (30w $54)

&
PRV Audio WG2-230Ti dual horn (30w $100)
http://www.parts-express.com/prv-audio-wg2-230ti-two-d230ti-compression-drivers-line-array-waveguide-package--294-2847

so even compression drivers designed for PA use (i still say ANY PA speaker should be able to handle at least 200w minimum) can have ridiculously low rated power. there has to be a formula that converts a tweeter's RMS to "real world use wattage". i can't believe any compression driver is intended for a 35w rated speaker. a home speaker? OK
