Default Question; Audio power consumption/RMS/ any gurus?..

Hi guys,

I have a question concerning my audio setup.

I have a scosche amp thats 800W max, tested at about 416 W rms. Im getting some infinity speakers; two 4" 2 ohm 35W rms and two 6.5" 2 ohm 90 rms speakers.

Im planning on using 2 channels for speakers, a four and six inch speaker on each. Now by math each channel should get 100W rms, and the speakers should consume 125 RMS. Now the specs on the site say its actually 75W rms @ 2.5 ohm per channel, which is even less..

Will this make a difference? will there not be enough power to power them?

Also, Im wondering about how power works....will the speakers take the power they need? what i mean is, do the 4 inch and 6.5 inch split the power proportionally or does it split the power in half, underpowering and overpowering the other...make sense?

any help would be great, ive always wondered this...

thx
Eddy
