Speaking from personal experience, if you choose drivers that compliment each other and proper crossover frequencies, a 2-way can often sound better than a 3-way because of fewer phase issues.
...but in general terms, I see where you're coming from

I will go as far as to say this belongs in your myths thread
Re: Prv audio local speakers
Why do you think that?:rofl:

I exclusively run 2 way systems, and of course I choose my drivers based on that. I wouldn't buy a Smart car and expect to pull a travel trailer. With that being said, the most critical choice is a low fs tweeter ( I'm a Morel fan boi). If my tweeter will play down to 2k or below, many 6.5-7" mids will mate with it. But there again, I choose what will sound best with a good dose of power. Solid gear, solid install, then my tuner makes me look good :)
Re: Prv audio local speakers
PRV Audio and Hertz SPL Show speakers are some of the most misused speakers I've seen, especially on Harleys. There are plenty of shops trying to use speakers such as the PRV 6MR500NDY (or Hertz SV 165.1) as an 80hz-20khz driver in the fairing and a PRV 8MB450-4 (or Hertz SV 200.1) as an 80hz and down driver in the bag lid or side of the bag.
Re: Prv audio local speakers
I understand your point, the point of the post is people expecting a pro audio 6.5" that really plays from 200hz to 5k and trying to cross it over at 60hz and blowing them up.
As far as a tweeter playing down to 2k I'm really not a fan. 2k is really too low for a tiny tweeter to play down to, ... 2k is more upper midrange than "tweeter". I like tweeters to play closer to 4 or 5k and up especially at high volume levels. 1200-3k is a harsh bandwidth I would rather have a cone type speaker playing that range
Of course this is just my opinion...
:cool:

Tiny tweeters :p

Next time you're in Texas gimme a holler, I'll let you demo. Current system has smaller tweets, but it still does pretty well https://www.amazon.com/Morel-MT-230-.../dp/B00B9LCTHG
