Hi John, great to hear from you.
So maybe that's why field coil drivers sound good... they run warm! You're gonna make me put on my thinkin' cap about this, but what you say makes sense. Hmmm.
There are practical considerations that weigh against running these old drivers at high motor temperatures. At what temperature would a paper former spontaneously combust? The other poster was talking about motor temperatures up to 212 degrees Farenheit. I've only smoked one coil former all these years, but when I was done with it there was nothing left but charcoal.
Running a motor really hot will probably expand the center pole a thousandth or two; not sure what the effect would be on the top plate. The voice coils I've seen that warped out of round probably did so due to high temperatures.
