Ive got 200watt RMS pioneer 3ways 6x9's for my mustang, I am wondering if MTX RT202 2-Channel Car Amplifier   would run these speakers nice, ?

That would be a good amp for those speakers. Enjoy!

I need a little advice which 6x9 speakers would be better in sound performance, 3way or 2way 6x9's?

Listen to them, the number of "ways" in a speaker do not necessarily make them sound better.

especially if they are rear fill. I have the alpine Type R 6x9's  (2way)in the back and they are great. I think they were like 129 from ikesound.com. The 3rd way is a lot of times  a supertweeter.

I believe 3 ways are a sales scam, but, most 3 ways also put bigger magnets on there woofers and because of that they can produce more bass. It's always been a tough decision picking 6x9's because of that and every situation calls for a different application. One 2 way I do like is the Fosgates. They don't seem to skimp on the bass and there tweeter is very mellow for a nice rear fill. Personal opinion, but just my two cents.

i agree with everyone else. I know the prestege ( i know i know) are really good 6x9's. Theire head units might be cheap but they make up for it on a low level speaker. They cost around $50

Ive got a set of 3 way 6x9's rated at 400watts in total, the amp I got running it now is some no name, Its does the job for now, I am planning to get another amp, A friend has one for a good deal its Rockford Punch 201S 2-Channel Car Amp I am not sure if it will run it too good,
4 OHM Output Power - Full Range 50 Watts
I dont think that will really cut it, I was looking at another  MTX RT202 2-Channel Car Amplifier would more and likely work better, I need some opions plsz?
