2-way or componet speakers
what's better...2-way or componet speakers? i can see the difference but i wasn't sure what was good. what brands do you guys recommend at an average price range. do you guys think polk audio makes good speakers, because i've seen good deals at a electronic store?

No, it really can be unpleasant.
I've got Boston Acoustics Pro 6.5 components in the front of my teg. The high range is SO bright that it hurts. the crossovers have jumpers for -2db & -4db attenuation, and I'm using -2 right now.
Unless you've got some bass to back you up, the high range can be obnoxious. Especially with 100 watts pushing them.
Tuned properly in a complete system, it's night & day. Components are worth the money.
I'm going to trade my 2 ways for the Boston 6.53s for the added midbass response.

Yeap, I just got my kappa components put in and it is very bright. Too bad there's no setting on the crossover to lower the output on the tweeters.
