Actually, the tweeter does not block the midbass... Nowadays, manufactuers use a passive crossover (RLC circuit... very small).

Anyway, I'm confused, EaCcOrdV6VTEC3rX...
Are you asking about 2/3 way speakers (otherwise known as co/tri-axials)? Or, are asking about 2/3 way component speaker sets which uses 2 - 3 drivers (tweeters, midrange and woofer)?

Some people don't demand very much from their system so, they opt for co/tri-axials. Plus, they are relatively cheap and the install is less involved. (Just replace the present full range speaker w/ a co/tri-axial!)
Mounted properly these my suffice...
But, if you demand better sound quality where you have dedicated drivers for each assigned frequency (tweeters: highs, midranges: mids, woofer: lows down to 30Hz, subwoofer: 150Hz - 20Hz = BASS!) These are more involved (sometimes elaborate) in install and can get more expensive.
