As a simple response to this question. DCR stands for DC resistance
for the coil. This is the static resistance that the coil has to
non frequency induced signals, IE a DC source.
In regards to the chenge in value I would leave well enough alone
in my opinion . I presently own the VIIIA and have thought of
doing a capacitor upgrade on these. Changing of the coils as stated
by Mart can and will change the characterstics of the crossover
and will change the Q loading of the woofer. This will change the
curve that the crossover uses to go from the mid panel to the woofer
( could be steeper or less steep ) as well as changing the loading the woofer represents to the amplifier. If you read the notes
concerning the woofer used it has a Q of .56 as I remember and has
been upgraded and custom made to match the panels characteristics.
This is a part of the design concept that has been employed in these
speakers to give a seemless transistion from the woofer to the panel.
Which is as a smooth as I have heard. Changing the DC value will
alter this characteristic, one which in my opinion should be left
well enough alone. Why mess with perfection?
