Subject: The cone does not stop due to clipping - there is no DC component


Engineers never learn anything useful in school!

An oscilliscope is fine for studying sine waves but not complex waveforms like music.

But even a clipped sine wave is not a square wave.

And no one listens to square waves or sine waves anyway except to make measurements at low volumes.

I wish a subwoofer cone had the ability to stop moving
instantaneously but it does not stop when listening to music. I suppose you could connect a battery to the driver and move the cone to one side or another.
