[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8142604, member: 576029"] the only difference between 3-way and 2-way coaxial is the extra 1" mid for higher output in upper midrange. both can play the same midbass. it doesn't matter if you have subs or not. coaxial woofers are usually ran full range, good 3-way coax have extensive crossovers to low pass the woofer and then you will hear an improvement. 4 ohm vs 2 ohm is a nearly inaudible difference of 3dB (we can perceive 2dB change and 10dB increase is needed to seem twice as loud) plus, 2 ohm has much higher distortion at rated power than 4 ohm so it's not something I recommend. and no speaker will sound "great" off deck power. do you have an external amp currently? i have the HD149BT and can play at full volume with no distortion. but that's because my xtant amps are setup properly.
