[QUOTE="newusername, post: 2929137, member: 562064"] And he makes a good argument, but I'm not sure why we consider Fs and Qms to be important if mass does not relate at all. For low frequency response, inductance actually plays a very small role (in my opinion) relating to transient response, unless we are utilizing an abnormally large voice coil. Again, it is worth noting that our friend Richard Small equated driver mass to an inductor in a series RLC equivalent circuit. I think Dan once mentioned since you cannot achieve ringing until you have experienced the "rise time" portion of transient response, that inductance was more important as it is the gateway to transient response. However, what if our intended bandwidth is narrow enough that the drivers upper frequency bandwidth is irrelevant? Why, that sounds like a subwoofer! Thank you for a totally useless post in the middle of a decent thread. May I ask, which is worse: the noobs who don't know well enough not to ask that question, or the experienced poster who perpetuates it? [/QUOTE]
