Have a gander at this

It illusrates the problem with the graph. I've tried to fit a scale (red) with 2.5 Ohm devisions. As drawn you can see that not all the marked values written on the plot align. Adjust to fit them, and one of the others won't fit. Similarly, the freq sale is oif course log.
Similarly the (green) lines show a full size (full) and a 0.708 line (broken). You can estimate a width from this which is around 10 Hz or so. i.e. Q around 3. But it is hard to know where the base of these lines should start as there will be some common resistance, etc.
So depending on how you decide to choose the scaling and origins you can get various values. But even assuming a Q of 3 at 30Hz we end up with a response time of the order of 100 ms at 30 Hz. Harmonics can dodge this are output before the fundamental movements of the bass can get going.
But we really need better data to make this more than a plausible behaviour. Data needed. As has been the case for decades.
