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.
