coaxial is a 3way and component is 2way set, so woofer and tweeters are separated with Xover

No, coaxial is a 2way speaker where the tweeter is built into the center of the speaker cone.

Component is a 2way or 3way separate midrange and tweeter with a crossover. Components sound MUCH better than coaxials.

That would be a triaxial. Basically a coaxial with an extra tweeter.

That is a triaxial. Tri = 3. Co = 2.

"i thought copmonents use a xover and coaxis dont."

Nope they both do, they usually have small crossovers built into the coaxials and some higher end coaxials have separate crossovers

my coaxial set is 3-way it sounds great- nobody calls them triaxle
