I guess it was a bit optimistc to think you could easily pull out the driver data, as they were developed 10+ years ago. But if you do come across them I would be grateful to see them.
Where the damping resistors are concerned I am interested in whether they would provide any benificial effects in reducing the resonant impedance peaks at Fs. Such as "fL" in vented systems when using higher Qts drivers. You say above "you can modify it electrically by shorting the voice coil, providing damping", So, depending on the value of the resistor, how much damping would be provided here and could it provide some benifits in, say, using the above in smaller rooms ? Or would it over damp the bass end ?
