That is because the mechanical Q (ie damping from suspension) has such a minor contribution in comparison to the contribution from the motor.Then take a look at the damping factor of the amp.  Most amps now days have more than adequate damping factors.  However if you were to get to a point where the amp didn't, there is nothing that a stiffer suspension can do to correct for it.John</blockquote>
