Two-way vs. three-way speakers

Two-way vs. three-way speakers

D, Two way vs. three way is just a matter of how many elements there are in the speaker design. A two way speaker has a woofer and a tweeter. A three way has a woofer, midrange and tweeter. So folks like a mid-range type sound if they like maybe strong vocals, guitar, or horns. Round vs. Rectangular? Mainly just a matter of placement. Round speakers go better in a ceiling, rectangular speakers better in a wall.
Name : D Message : What does the term "2-way speaker" acutally mean? What is the benifit/difference between a circular speaker and a rectangular speaker if watts, etc.., are the same? thanks
