Because i wanna buy some new speakers that will good cause i don't wanna buy subs.

 

TTT

 

The differences between 2 and 3 way speakers will in no way affect the bass you get out of them. It will affect the highs.

 

2 ways usually consist of a woofer and a tweeter. 3 ways usually consist of a woofer and 2 tweeters. More highs with higher "way" speakers.

 

IMO, 3 way coaxial speakers are worthless. Get a good two way instead. If you are talking about the 3 way components sets, then get them.

 

I was thinking "3 ways" were the best and I even got the "Best" components (infinity perfects) thinking these things had base, but they provide little to no base, just mids and extreme highs. You HAVE to get a sub if you're gonna get the "best" cabin speakers. I think the only reason why everyone says these are the best because I can turn the volume to MAX and not hear a single bit of distortion. and they are LOUD. I mean they can get Really loud. If they were to get any base out of them, they would blow.

So if you want super quality sound, you're gonna have to get a sub.

 

from wat i hav seen from comparing the Kappa's 1 a 2 way 1 a 3 way u can hear a total difference... the mid bass is soo nice on the 3 way... the 2 way it is much weaker...

go to a local store and check it out there is a MAJOR difference... i checked at Good Guys (they got some good deals also)

n if u dont want subs go for the 3 way

the difference between 2 way and 3 way speakers, coaxials at least, is the 3 way will have an extra crossover point in the upper frequency range. this is not necessarily a good thing especially since most tweeters in the 2 ways will sufficiently cover the frequency range. remember its not common for most humans to be able to hear about 18khz. so all these mfg's claiming 50khz response is jsut marketing and a waste. I would say the 2 way would be the better option if you absolutely had to go with the coaxial design.

3 way component sets on the other hand are the better option when dealing with components because you now have a tweeter for the highs, a midrange and a dedicated midbass driver. You will also find that with component sets like these, you tend to get high quality crossovers and quite often you are able to bi-amp or even tri-amp them. when you separate the midbass from the midrange you have better control over the midrange speaker due to less excursion and they are not as likely to distort so to speak from over powering them. with a smaller midrange driver too you can also run a higher crossover point between teh mids and tweets which can help the vocals phasing shifting issues.

ultimately component speakers are a better option in my opinion because you will tend to get much higher quality crossovers than with coaxials and the speaker construction will be better.

 

I was not in the mood for that much typing
