Are 3 Piece Components worth the Hassle?

I was going to order the Focal PolyKevlar 165K components, are the Focal 165V3's (Three piece components) worth the hassle? Where would I put the midrange? Thanks.

Hrmm....
I might just have to dust off those MB Quart 3 ways and Comp x-overs that have been takin' up space on the shelf. Hopefully a tweet and a 4" won't stick out as bad as this:

Well going with a 2-way set is most definately alot less hassle.. 3 way sets take ALOT of work to get the to sound right in out cars because of all the hard plastic reflective surfaces...I had 3-ways in my car..kickpanels and all..and I'm switching over to 2 ways because I have some unsolvable imaging problems...

I'd say go with a good set of 2-ways with great off-axis response and build some kicks..
