RE: Triamp equal power point for music.

Power density across the spectrum decreases at 3dB/octave, thus the use of pink noise. But you can only go by that if your speakers are equal in sensitivity and your source material flat, which is generally far from the case. Since most subwoofers have less sensitivity than woofers, and woofers have less than midranges and midranges less than tweeters power requirements are tilted to the low end. It's not unusual for a typical pro-sound system with subs crossed at 80Hz to have half the power driving the subs. From there the remaining 50/50 split often runs around 800 Hz.
