    800 Series Drivers - Power rating

    Trying to put together a table of what the power requirements for each driver in the 800 Series is.

    25mm (1 in) diamond dome high-frequency
    25mm (1 in) diamond dome high-frequency
    150mm (6 in) woven Kevlar® cone FST midrange
    165mm (6.5 in) Rohacell® cone bass
    180mm (7 in) Rohacell® cone bass
    200mm (8 in) Rohacell® cone bass
    250mm (10 in) Rohacell® cone bass
    380mm (15 in) Rohacell® cone bass

    Another thing is say your running a 800D on a Classe Mono-400 block. So you have 400 Watts RMS going to the speaker, how does it get broken up.

    i.e. 100watts to tweeter, 100watts to midrange, 200watts to woofers?

    So does that mean the 10 in Rohacell require 100watts of direct power?

      My amp has 2 channels of 100watts each.. and is it better to connect individual speak
      by jjahshik32
      my question was is it better to connect individual speakers onto its own channel? I mean 1 channel has 100watts and If I put left and right speakers on that 1 channel.. is it worse than putting say right speaker on channel 1 and just that 1 speaker gets its own 100w channel and left speaker on 2nd...

      B&W 805 - Rotel amp 100watts or 500watts?
      by Minivan
      Hi guys,

      I've got a Rotel RSX-1056 receiver with 100watts in 2-channel mode. Is this good enough for the 805's considering they are rated at 50-120watts?

      I could power them with a Rotel 1092 500watts power amp also. Is this overkill? Or would the extra power be beneficial?...
