I offered that advice as a first thought from personal experience, but to answer the original question; yes woofer size matters, as do most of the other components involved in a speaker. Let your ears be your guide, don't go with specs or speculation. Listen to your stuff on it (that determines whether the final result meets your needs) but also know that yes it matters, as does whether it is polypropelyne, kevlar or stamped board .. or metallic coating or ...

Lots of the specs matter but the one that matters most is your needs.
I like different woofers for different applications (recording/mixing vs live performance for example)


I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
