It has been my experience that most new speakers are of the 4 ohm variety.
I could be wrong but I don't think so.

Seems to depend on the market sector.

Pro speakers tend to be 8 ohm as default, although 4 and even 16 ohm variants
may be offered too.

All the hi-fi speakers I've met have also been 8 ohm. Maybe the drive to low
cost pretty boxes has resulted in more use of lower impedance types ?
