Why would you want to reduce damping factor?

High DF is a selling point for many high powered SS amplifiers, which can take firm control of low-impedance speakers. Enough series resistance to audibly reduce it would result in mushy, uncontrolled bass (like you get with an SET amp). How could that be considered desirable?
