I was also wondering... How can a super-low damping factor be that important
when there is appreciable resistance between one point in the voice coil and
another point in the voice coil? The speaker is not a magic machine for
converting volts into sound. It is a resistive load, mostly.


Right. Resistance anywhere in the circuit has the same effect.

Yep. Except it's not simply a "resistive load", it has a back EMF.

A simple little test. Tap on the woofer with various load
resistors. I have done this in a way, but not thoroughly

For the audiophools with their assinine view of loudspeakers...

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
