Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

Although your caution does have merit, it is well measured/documented.

192.73.8.199

A reduction in DCR to a bass unit does change the frequency response of the bass/enclosure system. The amount of change will affect the ability to hear it. Realitively small changes(tens of ohms) in the overall value of DCR can have very substaintial measureable and audible effects.

Overall sensitivity being affected is generally significantly less than a frequency shift/emphasis.

In other words, this event does not fit with your standard answers and more reading is needed on your part. I could suggest the Loudspeaker Design Cookbook by Vance Dickenson.
