are 4 way speakers better than 3 way or 2 way speakers?

.

Is there a such as a 1 way speaker?

Answer
More doesn't always mean better. It's just methods used by engineers to produce sound. For example a well designed 2-way sounds better than a crappy 4-way.

A well designed 3-way and up can go louder until distortion, can offer installation flexibility, etc. But they are complex, expensive and harder to do correctly. Most 3-4way car speakers are low quality shit but they still make 'em 'cuz people are suckered to thinking more is better.

A "1 way" speaker system is a full-range single driver speaker. It's just one driver making most of the sound from the lows to the highs. Drivers that can do this are referred to as extended range driver, wide range driver, or a full-range single driver, etc.

It's hard to make a single driver speaker that sounds good and plays loud. It's easier to split the audio frequencies to dedicated drivers so the each driver don't work as hard. ex: Subs play bass, woofers play midbass to midrange, tweeters play the highs

driver - is a single speaker/transducer. ex: a tweeter, woofer, subwoofer, etc.. In other words just the single speaker by itself.

would 2 way speakers work with a component system?

if i replace my stock front door speakers i want to get these or something similar ---> http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-TS-G1342R-5-25-Inch-140-Watt-Speaker/dp/B0012GFP7O/ref=sr_1_5?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1283658693&sr=1-5

the stock speaker has a component system (monsoon) with tweeters, would the tweeters work correctly if i installed 2 way speakers or would i just have to leave the old tweeters disconnected?
or any other advice

Answer
you would get a very bright sound with two tweeters connected . plus the impedance would be too low for the system. Leave them unconnected.
