Med. 2 Way + great acoustics are better than a super speaker or a sub

there are a awful lot of offal m2w that no amount of room treatment will ever make listenable

@ieales

Name a couple you don't like and a couple you do so we have some sort of frame of reference?

Best,

@erik_squires -  " Sorry, what I meant to say is, given a choice, a medium sized 2-way in a great sounding room will outperform all other options in a poor room. "

Agree 100%, with this caveat- any speaker design, in a great sounding room. will outperform all others in a poor room.
The room (and the setup) will determine AT LEAST 50% of the sound.
Erik, I know you are just as big a proponent of setup and treatment as I am, but it seems most aren't.
Way too many people spend too much on gear and not enough on treatment and a meticulous setup, IMO.
