Within a speaker different drivers handle different frequency ranges. A two way speaker has different drivers handling two frequency ranges; in this case a woofer for the low freqs and a tweeter for the high freqs. A 3 way speaker also has a midrange to handle the middle frequencies.

It refers to the amount of "speakers" or cones inside the speaker itself. 2-way = high low frequencies 4-way = high, low and two mid range frequencies Hope this helps P.S. get the 4 way if you have the choice. It will sound "richer".

Are 2 way speakers better then 3 way speakers?

Three way speakers are better. They will play louder and more clear than two way speakers, they do this by separating the frequency range up between three speakers instead of two so each speaker does less work and has a more precise and tuned frequency range. You will have much clearer highs, lows and mids from a three way speaker than a two way speaker and alot less distortion. When comparing speakers of different types you should compare from the same manufacturer and as close in price range because they are going to give you the most accurate comparison of the types, otherwise you will be comparing brands. ex- a 2 way Bose speaker will sound better than a 3 way sony speaker. And a top of the line 2 way speaker may sound much better than the bottom level 3 way from the same manfacturer. manufacturer will also come into play as well as price.
