In all my years of audio, I cannot remember a time when anything less than 4" produced any amount of bass. I recall helping my sister purchase a Panasonic cd boombox, probably 1990, that had two 4" full range drivers. That was the absolute best sounding bass from the smallest drivers I had found. Sony, in the mid to late 80's, made some boom boxes with square drivers that sounded impressive. I'm sure with todays technology, that same sound, and even better sound, can be had. I would venture to think, though, that an extreme amount of engineering, tweeking, and design would have to go into such a unit. Best of luck with this venture and those tiny drivers!
