I want to point out that while you are focusing on the suspension stiffness (cms), the mechanical variable that will create the most reactance is Qms, or the actual mechanical damping factor. The mechanical damping contributes to the reactive load that the speaker presents to the amplifier. Most people assume that the suspension stiffness is directly correlated to Qms, but it is not. You can have both soft and stiff suspensions that are Qms-agnostic. You will see this in the impedance peak of the driver at fs, and this is quantified essentially by the width of the peak. Higher Qms drivers will have a narrow peak, lower Qms drivers will have a wider peak. Cms, or the stiffness of the suspension, does not affect this. The lower the Qms number means the more mechanical damping the driver has, and the higher Qms number means less mechanical damping which equates to less reactance. The biggest contributor to Qms is the material of the voice coil former. Conductive formers like Aluminum or even some alloys of Stainless steel, even if they are not shorted, result in eddy currents on movement which is what creates more mechanical damping and a lower Qms. Also, inductance plays probably the most important role in the speaker itself creating a reactive load. Not only static inductance, but the inductance over stroke. In a Klippel lsi report this is what you would view as Le(x) and Le(i). I am a speaker engineer and the drivers that I design are both low inductance and high Qms, and we see marked improvements in system impulse response when using amplifiers with low damping factors, even tube amps. We also see this manifest in impedance stability of the amps, as there are some 8 ohm stable amplifiers that we are able to use with 1.5 ohm low-Le/high-Qms drivers without going into protect.

My Experience regarding Damping Factor is from the early 90s. Back then i built a pair of 15" backloaded horns equipped with Eminence EM 15-300. At first i ran them off of a home audio Aiwa Stereo Amplifier with about 2 x 120W RMS. It was nice and loud, after all it was 2 15s :) but at higher volumes, the Bass seemed to somehow "fall apart" in lack of a better term. Then i bought a PA Amplifier with 2 x 500W into 8 ohms. The Difference was absolutely huge. Not only in terms of achievable Output, but also soundwise, tested at roghly the same percieved loudness on both amps. Before, there was an undefinded rumble in the low end, which was completely gone on the PA Amp. Like night and day, literally. My only explaination back in the day was damping factor, made the most sense to me. So one could say, i have been wating about 30 years for you to enlighten me on the subject! Cheers! 😊😊😊

It will be interesting to see the results. Just as a note, I believe tube amps tend to have very low damping factor. Like low two-digit range. It's possible all the amps you have are "high enough" it doesn't make much difference. As a test, you could raise the amplifier's impedance by adding a resistor in series with the output. Obviously you'd have to increase volume to make much for the loss, but it might be an idea to control variables by using the same amp with different damping factors.

The driver is acoustically (ie mechanically) coupled to the cabinet. This has a huge impact upon how the whole thing behaves. In some cases you will find negative impedance at certain resonant frequencies. Good loudspeaker designers will mitigate and minimise this. Buying cabs and mounting drivers isn't as simple as it first might appear.

Keep in mind that your impulse response IS your frequency response. A perfect impulse or square wave needs all the frequencies under the sun to be built up and alterations of that sharp on / off transient are alterations in frequency response. It’s just an FFT away. This point was driven home to me directly when I started testing speakers 30 years ago with the IMP audio analyzer. One little “click” played through the system and your FR appeared on the screen. (Yes, the MLS sequence of impulses was more efficient, but this was a great way to be introduced to Fourier.) If your cone’s motion to the impulse is affected by the amp’s high output impedance it IS directly altering the frequency response. FWIW, this I also why some IEMs now ship with little inline 10 ohm or so impedance adapters to let users tune the bass.

Nice video on an interesting topic which a lot of people are interested in. The only point is your statement that class D amplifiers have higher dampening factor than class A/B. Class A amplifiers; yes, they have the lowest dampening factor. It mainly depends on the design of an amplifier, considering the dampening factor. I noticed in the German magazine HifiTest that class D amps have the lower (tested) dampening factor than class A/B amplifiers. But everything higher than 100 should be fine. In my experience, speakers that play the low notes are most beneficial of high dampening factor; keep the mass of the cone in control. High dampening factor are less important for mids and highs because of the lower moving mass; that's why sq guys use class A for mids and highs, and A/B or D for (sub)woofers. Even well regarded manufacturers engineer their multichannel amps this way (also because of the current draw of a sub channel).

What a tease. And here I thought I was gonna get a definitive answer to the question I've been wondering the last few weeks. My home audio monoblock power amps (Purifi Eigentakt 1ET400a) has an insanely low output impedance. The difference in bass was a night and day difference between those and my Class A/B monoblocks. The class A/B sounded more muscular, but not as controlled. Almost a bit bloated. The Class D Purifi's sounded lean in comparison, but ultra detailed. They didn't sound lean when I stopped A/B testing the 2 amps. My speaker cables also have a fairly low resistance. I wonder, if you have an amp with a crazy high DF, can that DF be negates by high resistance cables and binding posts? Can we hear the difference in that instance? I can understand people don't hear a difference with cable because of a low DF, but what about a high DF? 🤔 BTW, great video. When are you planning on posting the following video?

I am a bit experienced about those problems and I like to notice that it is not easy to know not theoretical but real impedance of spaeaker ZL for any harmonics which are interersting fo you. I see drivers without enclouser which is braking conditions of assesment . . You promise to measure output from amplifier when loaded with resistance 2 or 4 ohm. but what frequency are you going to apply? Most amplifiers work with output capcitors and it will affect results - amplifier may have higher output impedance in low range. At the same time higher harmonisc may be damped better than expected and i in my opinion is much more important then for lowest range hich you consider when talking about membrane main resonance. . It may be even a good factor if our spaker is not very big and may work good or bad in phase shifts produced by enclosure , That frequency without enclosure it is unknown. .Impedance ZL varies depending on many factors also on enclosure. which is not here. , but i couldn't find how you solved it. When this is positively solved I am interested how does sound is affected by ear when two amplifiers have damping factor different as much as 100 and 460 s. How much better is when it would be say 600? Because I do not receive sound based on calcultions which may be ipressive in numbers but on what I hear.

Very interested to see the impulse response results, since I've only seen damping factor discussed in relation to frequency response attenuation in dB. Since the effective damping factor is a combination of the amplifier output impedance and the speaker cable resistance, my guess is that in car audio the effects will be hardly noticable, as the runs from the amplifier to the subwoofer tend to be rather short and most people use common sense and aren't using 18 AWG cable for subwoofer connections

You left out the dominant factor in the control of the cone. The DC resistance of the voice coil, typically about 70% of the rated impedance of the speaker, is a part of the series resistance that in includes the amplifier’s output impedance, the resistance of the wire from amplifier to the speaker, and the resistance of the voice coil. The fact that part of the resistance is inside the speaker is not relevant to how damped the speaker’s motion is. Unless the wire running from amp to speaker is unusually high resistance, or the amplifier is an old tube amp with minimal negative feedback, the resistance of the voice coil winding is going to absolutely dominate. An amplifier with 0.1 ohms output impedance would have a much lower damping factor than an amplifier with a 0.01 ohm output impedance - and that wouldn’t make ANY practical difference, given that the resistance of the voice coil would be 30 or more times greater. BTW, FWIW I am a retired pro audio product design engineer.

I run class D amps I run a Stetsom Digital Bass 3000 2Ohm Version I also run a Stetsom HighLine 800.4 on my mids and highs. Both amps have internal fans.. Stetsom is more of an SPL company but I have to say the sound quality I am getting is phenomenal. The Mono amp puts out 3700 watts rms @2ohm @14.4v and 3000@ 2ohm at 12.6v I run three 1000 watt rms subwoofers in sealed boxes.. Dual enclosure in rear of suv and one in middle of 2nd row. S/N ratio: Dampening Factor and THD not really rated at time of purchase. Just saw amp dynos verifying power and foot print. I wired my 3 subs to 2.67 ohm and with ohm rise I am probably close to 3 or 4ohm load and this amp sounds phenomenal! The low freq's sound so clean down to around 24hz... I broke my sunroof (now sealed) from the roof flex that the sound reproduces. My windshield wipers shake at full tilt But it also sounds nice and clean at low volumes not overpowering the rest of the music but blends very well. The higher the ohm load the better the dampening imo.. If your amp sucks at 4ohm its not a good amp.. Wire down to 1ohm or .5 ohm and you can get really loud but no control. Then ppl wonder why they have to recone subs all of the time lol.. The 4 channel puts out 125 wrms @4 ohm under 12.6v and 165wrms at 4 ohm on 13.6v. it has a fan on it, so I hear slight sound from small tweeters when hooked up but changed to 3.5 full range speaker and no more slight hiss. Both amps run cool and sound amazing. I get compliments all of the time. Running a mono amplifier at 4ohm or better (If it has the power) will almost always provide a high dampening factor and much better control of your subwoofers vs wiring down to 1ohm or .5ohm with little much less control. Again, If your amp sucks at 4ohm its not a good amp..

You can simulate output impedance with normal power resistors. Even wound power resistors work, as long as you parallel at least four-five to lower the added induction. Five 1ohm resistors is an added 0.2ohm output resistance, and gives a damping factor of roughly 20 into four ohms at the speaker terminals. At low power, you could also use normal metal-oxide resistors to get a more "pure" resistance. And I think you oversimplified for the audience - but there's no such thing "a single pulse" for a single frequency in physical reality. The only true "pulse" that exists is the Dirac pulse, and that has a real frequency response of +/-0dB from 0Hz to the upper limit of the system. It contains all frequencies the system can reproduce Try loading a Dirac pulse in REW and apply a bandpass 30-100Hz to simulate a bass driver, and look at what the resulting curve looks like. This is the theoretically perfect response that no real speaker will ever get even close to, and still it rings quite a bit. Especially if you bandpass with a fourth order lower and third order upper (like most ported subs)

You didn’t need to get a bunch of different amps. You would get EXACTLY the same results by using one amplifier with extremely low output impedance (damping factor 800) and then adding a low value resistor in series with its output to see what effect a lower damping factor has. Assuming a nominal 8 ohm speaker, an output impedance of 0.01 ohms gives a damping factor of 800. Put a 0.1 ohm resistor in series and the damping factor would be 80. Put a 1 ohm resistor in series to simulate a super low damping factor of 8. Put a mike in front of the speaker and put a very, very low frequency square wave into the amp. Observer the actual acoustic output. Put the mike as close as possible to the cone, and hang the speaker in free air as far from any reflective surfaces as you can, so you aren’t just observing reflections off tables and walls.

@@carlosoliveira-rc2xt I bet you're wrong about that. Unless the output impedance of the amp is really high (several ohms) it is unlilkely that you could detect, in a fully blind test, the difference between a damping factor or 20 and any higher damping factor. Once the amplifier's output impedance is 5% or less of the speaker impedance, the DC resistance of the voice coils is absolutely the dominant factor in how much electrical damping occurs. Or more accurately, that dc resistance working with the coupling between the voice coil and the manetic field the voice coil is in. There is also coupling between the cone and the air, of course - that's the whole point of a speaker. And that also damps the motion of the cone. And in a ported enclosure, the mass of the air in the port has inertia, and once it's moving in one direction, it doesn't want to stop. That moving air mass fights the damping on the speaker. Factors other than the damping factor of the amplifier (once the amp is even sort of decently low output impedance) are far, far more in control of the transient response of the speaker.

It's been stated that around 80 is good enough for home stereo systems but it depends on the speakers too. I had an amp known for power output but low damping around 43 df and it made my speakers bass too flabby, slow and undefined (there were other issues as well such as graininess in the mids). My lower powered amp has around 150 df and surprisingly a rising frequency response rising up to 1.5db slowly starting under 90 hz and provides tight, strong and decent quality bass. The added response might help bass a bit, not much but also sucks a bit of energy too. But the amp works fine on even 4 ohm speakers. The difference in bass is minor between that amp and my upscale amp which probably averages well over 500 df., so at moderate SPLs, you may not gain much unless the speaker driver really needs to be heavily controlled and requires power and whether one listens at higher SPLs. Then a higher df may help. There are higher powered amps with a low df too whose bass is appreciated by alot of people producing a warmer sound, one that may add to the mids, but I prefer a fast, tight bass with definition over that. System synergy. Also, some have stated that speakers of higher sensitivity/efficient speakers can play better with amps with lower df while those that need power for output SPLs can benefit from higher df. But there is more to this I suppose. A nearfield speaker that can only take 50 watts but outputs say 83dB at 1 watt/2.83v or however they get measured today, may or may not sound better to someone due to df. So, there's more to it such as distortion, SNR, how well a signal gets amplified along the whole frequency curve, room, source, recording, etc. In my experience, if an amp has sufficient df to not sound flabby on a particular speaker I have, its good enough. Can one have too much df? Yes. It can make a speaker sound a bit thin in certain ranges, from what I have heard. Adding a sub can change the whole presentation as well. If one uses a good sub that blends in the bass without seeming off, too fast or too slow, etc., it's going to cover up or fix some of those low end deficiencies when set appropriately at a certain low frequency point, especially if you can cut the poorest response off from the speakers. Say setting the crossover point somewhere between 50 and 100 hz. I run my small bookshelves full range with a sub adding in at and below 80 Hz and it mostly works without hearing the sub. Perhaps 2 subs would help that for balance but it isn't worth it for me as I am satisfied with the results.

The class of an amplifier has no direct bearing on the damping factor. Any kind of amplifier can be designed to have a very low output impedance.The bandwidth of the semiconductors available now makes it trivial to build an amplifier with very wide bandwidth and lots of open loop gain. That in turn allows for lots of negative feedback. Lot of negative feedback lets the amplifier hold the output at a precise voltage independent of the current flowing into or out of the output.

@@user-bs9wd7cj8q Better or worse are not words I would apply to the concept of negative feedback. Negative feedback is a tool. Conceptually it means comparing the output of an amplifier to the input. The difference (if any) represents an error. It means the output is not a perfect (amplified) copy of the input. A portion of the error is inverted (that's where the word "negative" originates) and mixed with the input to partially cancel the error. Sending the output of an amplifier back to its own input in inverted form is a powerful tool in the arsenal of amplifier designers, but like any powerful tool has dangers. There is an ever present possibility for the negative feedback to become positive feedback and trigger ringing or outright oscillations. This generally happens at far above audio frequencies, but can occur intemittently under particular combinations of load current, output voltage and load characteristics. And signals do not propagate through an amp instantaneously. Whenever the input changes suddenly, there will be some brief interval when the error between the input and output is very large, because the input has changed, and the output has not yet changed. This can overload (clip) internal stages of the amplifier for a few microseconds. If and how much that matters depends on all sorts of details beyond the scope of this already long comment. Bottom line: negative feedback is a nearly universally used technique, and applies to any kind of amplifier. Proper engineering makes it very beneficial. Poorly done, it can cause subtle problems. And that is true for any kind of amplifier. BTW - I am retired from the audio business, but over many decades I designed audio amplifiers for some big name companies. Mostly for pro audio, not home hifi. But the principals are the same...

You werent taught the underlying reason. And its not your fault..some of this is correct. Some isnt. Lets get to the truth. Look at the rail voltages. If the voltages move at aĺl. The output has been compromised.

Pay attention. Math only explains physics. Dc resistance isnt imp.. all amps can drive low imp if rails dont move. Yes Im david stevens Im the master of audio
