^ The 2 way brings with it advantages and compromises. In theory the 3 way should out perform the 2 way every time, that is usually the case in practice as well, but as Adam was mentioning the compromises (of a 2 way or 3 way system) could disqualify it from use i.e. a 3 way system takes up a lot more real estate than a 2 way, also the places all these drivers and crossovers will fit will be more limited in a 3 way (the mid-woofers in my 3 way system are in a compromise location). The freq band a 2 way system has to do can be too broad for the drivers in question and leave the midrange or midbass a little lacking. Basically both can work with the proper combination of drivers, patience, installation skill and money.

Sling, I haven't heard them.

Chadxton, (nice name buddy)

You can prod me all you want, I'm not telling anyone. It's been over a month now since I first let that slip, and I'm taking it to the grave. [img]smile.gif[/img]

No one has guessed right though if thats any help...and I've NEVER seen them used in car audio.
