Looks like the XBA-2, XBA-3 and the XBA-4 should be added to the IEM list as well

With multi-driver BA IEMs, each driver is assign a different range of frequencies to produce. Much like a speaker system. A woofer is for bass frequencies and a tweeter is for treble.

The term "woofer" is an abbreviation of the term subwoofer I think. You rarely see them mentioned in headphones since most headphones use a single full range driver, speakers however, due to their size and the distance from you head,  often need tweeters and subwoofers to sound balanced or good.

Lol...no....subwoofer is an extension of woofer. Not the other way around.

Just like how the word "sonic" has extensions like supersonic and subsonic.
