The speaker cone does not follow the shape of the wave. The cone does not stop moving with a clipped wave.

Because of suspension/damping, but it tries to, no?

It will ignore that high freq material due to the woofers high inductance.
Here's what manville said:

"DISCLAIMER: The frequency components of clipping can affect tweeters due to their low inductance and lack of low-pass filtering. Clipping essentially raises the average power of high frequencies to a point that can damage tweeters... Woofers and midranges couldn't care less about these high frequency components because their filtering and/or inherent inductance knocks that stuff out of the picture."

if we had a sub without suspension that could transfer any energy, in free air, it would essentially follow the curve, wouldn't it? the distance you are from the center line of the curve would transfer directly to the distance the coil is from its resting position in the gap, proportionately, right?

Yes. In a perfect world with no suspension, no energy losses anywhere, no resistance, it would. But that obviously is not a real-world scenario.

So you're saying, in reality, that there is no loss of cooling resulting from clipping?

Due to loss of cone motion? Correct, that does not happen. That's exactly what several of the 'experts' in that quoted thread mean when they keep saying the only thing that kills the speaker from clipping is the excess power. There is no voodoo in a square wave that makes it inherantly dangerous, beyond the fact it has more (average) power than its normal shaped counterpart. The squared wave shape will not result in a loss cone motion in your subwoofer.

Alright, good to know

you are a regular e thug huh, i'm so proud of you

k for one i signed up cause i seen all this shit about EVERYONE from hawaii is stupid. and honestly u guys are all right about this car audio stuff, but not right to say everyone from hawaii is stupid. im not here to start shit but im saying talk is cheap when you're thousands of miles away. so i say come here and say that cause i'm pretty sure you wouldnt.

 

[infernois300]

anyways to the OP nick

He's a cool guy i heard his truck i cruised with him and his cousin couple times all cool guys, i just guess everything started on the wrong foot??

everyone from hawaii is stupid.

^^^see we got smart ***** like this. why dont you fly your *** here and say that and see what happens. or even better yet even try saying that. what makes you say we're all stupid. isnt obama from hawaii so is he stupid?

He was born there, he doesn't reside there...people who reside there are stupid. Don't you watch Dog?
