I like 2.5 way designs and have a few including the "Mermans" that I developed (JBL 2241H 18", JBL 2251J 9.7", modified Heil AMT) and the Super Big Reds with the Altec 604-E2s/Utahs.
Mermans:
The JBL 4435 is also a 2.5 way design.
2-way design vs. 3-way design means ?
Just curious as to the sound difference between two-way and three-way, obviously a missing element on the two-way of the mid range. I own a three-way Cornwall and I’m thinking of going to one of these heavier and more substantial, build, quality, thicker walled bookshelf speakers.
I guess every speaker sounds different to every different human ear that listens …and it may be difficult to explain in terms of the sound. Obviously, a two-way speaker only has two drivers and possibly different interior components?
Like… what is the difference between a Fritz and a JBL century L 100?

@yogiboy smart people told me this who knew about speaker design. I believe them :P |
I am with you! The corollary is that if a two-way speaker and a three-way speaker are the same price, it is London to a brick that the two-way will sound better. It is equally disturbing that given the choice, most buyers will go for the 3-way as they seem to be getting more for the money. A case of less really being more! |
