RE: wattage, more than low impedance.. Tweeters use a few watts max.

Posted by pictureguy on March 3, 2017 at 15:50:19:
right as far as you go.
But 'Stats also typically have HUGE phase angles as frequency rises.
This means that to get 10 watts to the tweeter, you need Far More power to yield the 10 you need.
1.4x @45 degrees and INFINITE at 90 degrees where no power is delivered. The 'tell' is you use the cosine of the phase angle. @60 degrees, you deliver only 1/2 the amps power to the load.
