The concept that a driver's Vas is related to the force created by compressing the volume Vas to one cubic meter is flawed. This is most clearly demonstrated by imagining that if a driver had a Vas of one cubic meter, it would then exert no force. Stiffness is force/distance and compliance is distance/force - neither of these has units of pure force as implied by stating: "...the volume of air when compressed to one cubic meter exerts a force equal to the driver's compliance".
