The front 3 Tweeters are 25 Watts RMS. The front 9" subs are 100 Watts RMS and the rears are 12.75 Watts RMS. If you want an estimated figure for max power, multiply it by the square root of 2. The Front three tweeters and the rears are on one amp. Each front sub has its own 100 Watt amp. The front left and right tweeters are 4 ohms, the center is 2 ohms. The subs are .5 ohm. The rear tweeters are4 ohms and the rear 6x9's are 2 ohm. There is a capacitor that acts as a high pass filter for the rears.

okay, i just say that because i replaced my back speakers with a pair of infinity's and they sound good... i know they are getting more than 12 watts, they play way too nice to only be getting 12 watts.

you'd be suprised how far 12 watts will go on midranges, especially intinity's. they're known to be very efficient, but not very robust (at least the 4 kappa perfects i went through to learn that 
).
).

is there any way to replace the front speakers without using a different amp....if i hook up a 4 ohm speaker i would be getting 8 times less the power?..is that right? what if i swap out just the tweeter?

Theoretically if you half the impedence the power draw should be double, so if you x2 the impedence it should be half the power draw. Also to help you understand the 12.75 watts to the speaker, in order to get 2x the perceived sound volume, you need 10x the power, example would be 100watts is 2x louder to the ear than 10watts. Hope that helps
Of course that is a really simplified explanation of things.
