I have a pair of Kicker Resolution component speakers. I also have a pair of Kicker K60 coaxles. The resolutions are 4 ohm, 5.25" w/ 2" tweeter, & the K60 are 4 ohm, 6.5". Both have very similar power ratings. Res=8-90watts RMS, & K60=6-90wats RMS. Someone once told me you can't do this. Is that person correct?
