I think that's a word that might apply to both Daves.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

I was searching for the inventor of the ORIGINAL dual voice coil woofer, and the reasoning behind the actual invention

Have you seen this patent, Dave? http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/4897877-description.html

Contrarily, JL says "The independent wiring application is the one that brought about the need for dual voice coil speakers in home audio. Unlike most good car amplifiers, home amplifiers and receivers are typically not mono-bridgeable. For this reason, dual voice coil woofers were developed so that a subwoofer or center speaker could be driven from the left and right channels of the average stereo home amp/receiver. Since sub-bass frequencies are hard to localize, the dual voice coil subwoofer allowed sub-bass reinforcement within one cabinet and one speaker."

Which makes me think (and I have heard) that dual coils originated for home subwoofer use. So, did you find the answer?

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

I, too, had heard that the DVC arrangement was designed and invented for home use. Really, though, it stands to reason, as when the DVC driver was invented, there wasn't really anything HAPPENING in the car audio world... it basically didn't exist. (to speak of)

No, I had not seen either of those links, and I still haven't found a truly definitive answer... Lots of CLAIMS, but as of now, I haven't been able to truly nail the timeline's feet to the floor. 1987 or so, seems to be the earliest mentionings or reckonings. I just don't think that sounds right yet.
