not so sure that was intentionally nonsensical - but when I run my Sears canister vacuum, it does make rather a lot of noise
In space, no one can hear you laugh....

One could deconstruct a few defunct vacuums and use the canisters as "boxes". Would provide an interesting loudspeaker environment for a full ranger. Nothing if not a conversation piece!
I trust the OP recognizes that none of the jesting on this and other recent threads are intended as personal affronts. I want to believe that even the snarkiest of the responders are at their core sincere in their desire to share and help.
But then, as my long suffering wife would attest, I've been wrong more often than not about pretty much everything

I thought he might mean mounting a driver to a box and sucking the air out, but this would just suck/lock the driver down, making it non functional at best.

Off topic:
What about the other way, ie., driver placed in a sealed box with higher air pressure than the atmospheric pressure?

I think it is Douglas Self who has a mention and pic on his website about an 'oxygen-free listening room'. As I remember, it was not successful 😱

Apparently, there is sound in a vacuum but it is very low frequency and so not normally audible.

PS as this post starts with 'Apparently', should it be taken at face value ?

It has always been a pet peeve in sci fi movies. When the Death Star goes szhekx in the night you see a bright flash, go blind, all your skin melts off, every piece of electronics on board your ship is toast BUT THERE IS NO BOOM.
I suppose if you did test loudspeakers in a vacuum the neighbors wouldn't be complaint about those periodic "pshhhhhht" sounds coming out of your rig every couple of minutes at 110 dB, and you could get a true measure of MMS without disassembling it.

Measuring a speaker's impedance in a vacuum can give you useful data, though...
Some people put other things into a vacuum and measure them to get false data
