My girlfriend just bought me these speakers for my boat to replace my pair of fusion speakers that I ruined. http://cgi.ebay.ca/DOUBLE-BULLET-WAKEBOARD-TOWER-SPEAKERS-BOAT-POLISHED_W0QQitemZ320271426514QQihZ011QQcategoryZ1 5272QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I created a thread on here asking about what went wrong with my speakers and a lot of people were saying that it was most likely a "thermal event" which was caused by me running too much power to the speaker for too long which caused my crossover to overheat. Now that I have new speakers I want to be carefull with how I wire them. In my boat I have a 400watt 4 channel amp that runs all of the interior speakers (8 in total) and I have a Alpine V12 400 watt 2 channel amp to run my tower speakers with. How should I wire these speakers? Since they don't have a crossover do I not have to worry too much about running lots of power to them? Or should I just tap into my other amp and just run lower power to them? Thanks for all the help in advanced. I did a search on here a couple of times and wasn't able to come up with any good threads to help me answer my question. I also don't really want to take any chances with these speakers.
