2-ways that are close to 3-ways


I primairily use my 2-ways for 2ch listening, which are Meadowlark Swallows or Buggtussel Circas. I do have a pair of Klipsch Chorus II's for 3-ways, so I don't need a pair of 3-ways.

What I'm wondering is, is there a 2-way that is close to a 3-way while not being as big? I would like to have 3-way (fuller across the frequency) sound while having something in the size of a 2-way footprint.

A little about my system:
- EAD CDP
- Audio Mirror/TRL modified DAC
- Tube Technology Tube Preamp
- Promitheus Transformer Buffer between preamp and amp
- Amps rotate between: 12w SET, 12w PP, 65w chip, 130w ICE-based

Room is 15W X 20L X 8H

I'm really happy with everything, I just feel like my current 2-ways are my limitation when I use my 2-ways. For those asking the question of why don't I just use my 3-ways, it's because they're hard to move at 90+lbs and I don't to move them eveytime I want to listen. I have thought about just building platforms with casters in the future.

there are a pair of audes blues on agon for under a grand. these are up to around 4k new(still a value), and they are pretty easy to drive. the audes, like the coincidents are classic balanced sound from top to bottom, and though they're not the flavor of the month , are real keepers. an overlooked music lovers speaker, and a 3 way.
