Default Software Which Models Dual Voice Coils?

Has anyone seen any software, preferably freeware or cheapware, (but I'll accept any suggestions), which models dual voice coil speakers as separate coils?

Not just a choice to hook each coil up in parallel or series, or even to separate sources-but a program which calculates the response when a single channel is driving both coils, but there is a passive network between the coils.

Any recommendations or suggestions are welcome.

I have not tried it, but you could probably do it in LSPCad. As I understand it, it is possible to "draw" any analog and by connecting two motors appropriately, I think it could be modelled.

Apparently LspCAD does NOT do it, at least according to one of the frequent responders over at their Yahoo group. The author of the software seems to answer most questions but has not weighed in yet.

Anyone know of any other software?

Focal used to have dual voice coil drivers which were designed to be driven by a single channel with a network. Hopefully, some software author saw that and decided to allow his program to simulate it. Anyone know of any?
