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.

A major variable is your room size.  Putting a 3-way loudspeaker system in a small room would be fraught with many room interaction issues. A 2-way will mitigate these issues. 

mofojo is pretty spot on.

I'm using a 2 way with a sub that integrates perfectly with outstanding results and a 3-way in my room would be overkill.

Good hunting
