Factory Amp wattage

Anyone know the wattage from the factory amp?

so thats 200 watts by 6 channels then...but there is tweeters so maybe is 40x4 (for the speakers) and 20x2 (for the tweeters)...but either way i should get 45-50 watts RMS for my speakers then

tweeters are not powered by the amp, so I believe it's a 50 x 4 @ 2 ohms. Moving up to 4 ohm speakers will cut it down to approx. 25-30 x 4.

I thought that the tweeters were in parallel with the front speakers. Also, the ohms is a strange one. They aren't four like normal aftermarket car stereos, and I also thought that they were not 2 ohms.

the door speakers are definitely 2 ohms. It's stamped right on their magnets.

OK I stand corrected. But how are the tweeters wired in.

[Psychobroker]

I think the tweeters are wired directly to the head unit, but I'm not sure. Someone else might be able to help in that respect

This amp is 200w peak. It should be 50x4 and the tweeters are in parrallele with the front doors.

I know that they don't run off of the head unit. There are only 4 speaker outputs on the head unit. so they are either parrelled off before the amp or after the amp. And after would be easier.
