Whats the difference between 2way and 3way car speakers ?

  • Answer:

    A 2-way speaker's crossover splits the frequency band into two ranges: bass frequencies go to the woofer, and treble frequencies go to the tweeter. In a 3-way system, the frequency band is divided into three ranges. The middle frequencies are sent to a third driver commonly referred to as the midrange. Because 3-way speakers require more room for the drivers, they're usually only seen in floor-standing models.

In a 3 way system the frequencies of the audio are seperated into 3 bands - low mid and hi - in a 2 way into low and hi - usually there is some sort of a crossover network to seperate out the frequencies in the event that you only have one supply for two speakers that are meant to deal with different frequencies.

One way.

Watch the polarity or it will sound shitty. The 3 way spkr will have a woofer a midrange and a tweter or hi range spkr on most 2 way spkrs you have a woofer and a mid range spkr.
