Hi everyone, I am about to start on a new DIY project. I have a friend who is willing to sell me some older active monitors at a price I cannot pass up. I am thinking of taking the amp and amp plate from that and making my own set of active monitors. I am thinking of using 6 1/2" woofers and a silk dome tweeter. I have looked up the amp specs, and it is 4 ohms to the woofer and 6 to the tweeter. Does it matter if I use a 4 ohm tweeter? I know if I use an 8 ohm speaker I won't get the same power output, so I am sticking to the specs as close as possible. I am clueless as to what woofers I should use. Oh, and I should point out, my budget is $200-$250. That is not including the monitors I am getting from my friend. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
