Utter nonesense Zar, these guys are same puritanical maniacs that took away all the controls. The best design is the design you like best. You said will a 2 or 3 way sound the way I like. I have no idea , but if you like those speakers just have them refurbished. BTW if you are interested in TSMs write to me . I have 10 pairs of speakers the majority are in fact are two way, but the ones I use the most are 3 way.
3 way vs. 2 way
I currently have Mirage M5si bi polar speakers, I believe these have two tweeters and two 6inch drivers. For my room size I want to go to a conventional speaker. I would also like to give a high end store in my area the business as the owner is a friend. He carries Totem and B&W. I notice may of the Totems have only a tweeter and a driver. Can I get as good sound out of smoething like that as compared to a speaker with 3 or 4 in the cabinet?
