Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Hello all,
I am currently building (actually still designing, though I have the parts) my first pair of towers (maybe they won't be towers in the end). I am having a few problems though during this phase.
First of all, what wiring configuration is ideal for a pair of woofers and 1 tweeter? I have found that mathimatically wiring the woofers in series and then wiring that netwok to the tweeter in parallel gives me an impedence around 5.5oHMs. Is this ideal though for the sound quality? Does it matter?
Secondly, how do you calculate the effeciency of the system (1 speaker) based on the effeciency of each component? Does the crossover effect this?
Any help you guys could give me would be much appreciated. Thanks.
