4 Way Speakers Vs. 2 Way Speakers By CyphSB, eHow Contributor Speakers come in many shapes and sizes Most high-end speakers have 3-ways to account for low, mid and high range sounds. Yet, there are also 2-way or 4-way speakers. How many "ways" a speaker has can make a difference for the performance and look of a speaker. Speaker Sets and Axial Speakers A co-, tri-, or quad-axial speaker is a single speaker with two, three or four built in components. A component speaker set contains individual units that each provide either a specific direction or frequency of sound. For example, a tweeter, mid-range speaker and sub-woofer would all be separate in a component set and in the same box in a tri-axial or 3-way set. 2-Way Speakers A speaker that is 2-way or co-axial contains a mid-range cone in addition to a tweeter cone for high-frequency sound. 3-Way Speakers A speaker that is 3-way or tri-axial contains a bass and mid-range cone in addition to a tweeter cone. These speakers are often high quality units that provide extremely clear sound through all ranges. 4-Way Speakers A speaker that is 4-way or quad-axial contains a bass and mid-range cone as well as two tweeters. The extra tweeter gives these speaker better high-range sound, but generally adds little to the overall quality. Speaker Sets Speaker component sets start at 2.1 (standing for two directional speakers and a sub-woofer) and go up from there. These sets often produce the highest quality sound, allowing the user to add individual units and ensure acoustic accuracy.

Speakers come in many shapes and sizes

Most high-end speakers have 3-ways to account for low, mid and high range sounds. Yet, there are also 2-way or 4-way speakers. How many "ways" a speaker has can make a difference for the performance and look of a speaker.

1. Speaker Sets and Axial Speakers

   • A co-, tri-, or quad-axial speaker is a single speaker with two, three or four built in components. A component speaker set contains individual units that each provide either a specific direction or frequency of sound.
     For example, a tweeter, mid-range speaker and sub-woofer would all be separate in a component set and in the same box in a tri-axial or 3-way set.

   2-Way Speakers

   • A speaker that is 2-way or co-axial contains a mid-range cone in addition to a tweeter cone for high-frequency sound.

   3-Way Speakers

   • A speaker that is 3-way or tri-axial contains a bass and mid-range cone in addition to a tweeter cone. These speakers are often high quality units that provide extremely clear sound through all ranges.

   4-Way Speakers

   • A speaker that is 4-way or quad-axial contains a bass and mid-range cone as well as two tweeters. The extra tweeter gives these speaker better high-range sound, but generally adds little to the overall quality.

   Speaker Sets

   • Speaker component sets start at 2.1 (standing for two directional speakers and a sub-woofer) and go up from there. These sets often produce the highest quality sound, allowing the user to add individual units and ensure acoustic accuracy.
