The mid-woofer is the backbone of a two-way speaker: it carries the bass and the whole midrange up to the tweeter on its own. A 4 to 8 inch size is a good compromise between bass extension and a clean, wide-dispersion midrange.
Paper cones give a natural, warm midrange, aluminium and composite cones are stiffer and more detailed, and ceramic is the top tier. Watch the cone's break-up region: keep the crossover point below it, or an unpleasant peak will appear in the treble.
