Single driver vs traditional 3 way loudspeakers


What you prefer , single driver , no crossover, full   range  loudspeakers powered by low power SAT  or traditional 2-3 way design ?

My Merrill Zigmahornets are amazing!  Yes, no bass below 50hz and no highs above 15khz with these 4" drivers.  I don't care! The rest of the range is so natural and open that I never miss it.  10 watts is plenty to make them sing.  
These are lousy for theater but that's not the idea of them.
Any doubters are welcome to come hear for yourselves how sweet it is.
I like a three way, line source (80-100 hz down not included) Servo controlled.
I like multi driver arrays.  To me more is better.. Bigger is better...
BUT I have some great  "little giants" in the mix too.. Giant Killers for sure...

All speakers have specific limitations and strengths. Single driver speakers do some things very well that (not many) multi-driver speakers can mimic; namely aligned, cohesive midrange magic. Which is what most flea-watt SET guys are seeking. Good match.

I've had good luck with Omegas and Coherent speakers with mid-powered PP amps like the McIntosh MC225. Great sound. In my rooms they worked best in smaller rooms and at lower listening levels.

Speaking of Omega, Louis Chochos claims that his most uncolored speaker models are those using his 4.5" drivers without whizzer cone. I have heard these but not had one in house so I can't really compare it to the Omega Alnico 6s I used to own. But it was a very nice sounding speaker as I recall. But as others have commented, it was rolled off at the extreme highs and limited on the bottom. If were doing single driver again I would strongly consider these, mated it to a pair of Rel T5is subs.

I thought a full range driver would be the best way to deliver uncompromised sound, but after listening to Vandy VLR's - compared to Zu Omen Bookshelves, I found the Vandy's to be significantly better. And, not a 3 way, either.- It must be in the crossovers...
-And, the drivers, cabinet, etc...

i certainly second omegas with tube amplification. My 3xrs are very musical, have tuneful bass, and are lighting fast. Very dynamic at low listening levels. If your jam is LOUD! that’s not what they are about. After listening sessions w multi-driver speakers, i am always happy to be back home in the sweet spot.
