You know there is a 10" Peerless dome woofer, right?
That could be what the doctor ordered.

What is that larger dome?, looks like 4" OD.

Frankly I do not understand why dome mids are not used more often.

Because of their high distortion under 1Khz which requires a crossover in the most sensitive range, thin sound and they`re harder to countersink with standard routers. Soft domes are also prone to diaphragm bending which will happen lower in the frequency response compared to soft dome tweeters.

I am well aware of it, never tried it though

And then some, I should say. I have a hypothesis on why there is not more of these in contemporary designed products. Ever increasing costs and complexity and the fact that not just every manufacturer (one man show) knows how to successfully design a 4 way loudspeaker.

Dali 7 and 7b were the modesl that made the brand take of and they had dome midranges
