Which sounds better 2 way or 3 way speaker design


Seeking to purchase one of the following 3 speakers:

1. Proac K3-2 way design

2. Totem Element Metal V2-2 way design

3. Triangle Cello-3 way design

I am under the impression, (which I may be incorrect) that a three way design is superior to a 2 way design.  All of the above speakers listed below retail for about $18,000 per pair. Am I correct to assume that a 3 way design will give the listener a much better chance to hear the full audio spectrum as opposed to a 2 way design?

Thank you.

@toddalin , I always am interested in your perspective.  After reading your above post, how would you answer the OP's question?  

Also, if one was  going to go with a two way speaker, is there a sonic advantage in a two way that is built into its own floor standing cabinet versus a two way that is intended to be placed on a speaker stand?
