RE: LOL! I'm the guy!

"I was reading that from the Speaker Design Cookbook, regarding frequencies below the driver, that it wouldn't do them if it couldn't"

The speaker won't reproduce them, at least not with the same sensitivity as within the nominal passband, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't try. The cone will still move according to the frequency and voltage applied.

"also, the travel stops mechanically"

Only when the voice coil former smacks into the back plate. At the high frequency end of the spectrum most drivers are thermally limited, but at the low end displacement is often the greater limiting factor.
