So what? You still can't magic bass from anywhere. A 6" driver at the
same cost as 7" driver is never going to be able to produce as much
bass. Maybe a 6" at double the price. My opinion is that half the
speaker design is about making a small, pretty box rather than
something that makes a decent sound.

An 'ideal' speaker would be tiny and a point source. Any discrepancy from
this produces compromises of one sort or another.

That doesn't seem to be taken into account by many of the speaker makers
either. More expensive speakers often have 2 or 3 small drivers (what I'd
term mids) in an attempt to shift enough air to make some bass. There does
seem to be a lot of focus on producing a small cabinet that will fit in
nicely to your wife or girlfriend's plan for the living room.
