Certainly no observed correlation between cone excursion and IM distortion is counter-intuitive...
I agree, but then I haven't looked at the drivers closely enough to see if there isn't actually somewhat of a trend. For example, both the porting frequency and cabinet alignment can affect the cone-excursion. The test signal chosen for determining the distortion can also have an impact on the actual cone-excursions being measured too.
