I actually agree somewhat with that 3rd sentence. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Some speakers have a tweeter, a midrange and a woofer. These are called 3-Way, and generally sound clearer than 2-Way (there are other factors of course, and many 2-Way speakers blow away other 3-Way speakers). Some speakers have many tweeters, midranges and woofers that divide up the sound 6 or more ways. These are called very, very expensive. Speakercraft recently came out with a 10-Way speaker that is $4000 a pair. We would love to have a pair of them too.

complete and utter bullshit. the imaging on a 3-way speaker sucks the 2-way's dick. i have never heard a 3+ way speaker that has better imaging than a 2-way

Depends on the design...the Forte II's I have will give a single-driver setup a good run for its money. Better off-axis response, as well.

If you really want something good to pick apart, why not post that "Ten Lies of Audio" bullshit that gets peddled around every so often?

Enjoy.

I'm not saying I disagree with the entire article, as he makes good points - but he also shows glaring ignorance on a few.

That's the article SSA swears by, they have it stickied in their forums. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/hilarious.gif.02a037aad04aa96f19982b298a3d70a8.gif

I wouldn't quite put it that way, it's posted there, but we've had that discussion a while ago //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
