Yes lower "Q" designs are by defintion over damped. And in theory a "Q" of 0.7 is the 'ideal' driver for IB or dipole use. However I strongly suggest that people compare/experiment to see whether or not they think that there is a significant audible difference between high and low "Q" setups...

Edward IB and dipole designs have the best transient response of all subs that use conventional cone drivers. The only speakers with better bass transient response are planars. IMO amps with higher damping factors improve the SQ from subwoofers.
