Yes, I laugh about Weil's comments about NHTPro A4s. Search
google, there is no such thing. There are such things as the
NHTPro M00, which have 4" woofers.

Q: how much of a woofer is a 4 inch speaker?

Not a heck of a lot. The problem is that maximum possible Xmax tends to
scale down with the diameter of the driver. Since high Xmax is the way to
offset small cone area, its a double-whammy against bass.

Didn't we call them midranges a decade or two ago?

I remember when speakers with 4" tweeters weren't that uncommon.
