I got a new set of components and on the crossover they have an input for the mids and an input for the tweaters my stereo doesnt have enough channels and I dont know if an amp would blow the tweaters... So how should I wire these up? Would it be okay to link the + input on the mid to the + on the tweater and negative on - on mid to - on tweater input???

Thanks

Yes. In fact, the crossovers SHOULD have come with a jumper, to do just that.

They are a bi-wirable component set, and if you were to wire an amp channel to each input, you would still be golden. Just make certaiun that the amplifier power does not exceed the power specified by the manufacturer, and you'll be fine.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
