Speaker Lifespan


Barring a blown driver, tweeter, etc. How long before sound starts to obviously degrade? I have Mirage Bi Polars that are 12 years old. Not looking forward to replacing them.

My oldest pair is 47 years old, no repairs to drivers. Well they use fabric surrounds on the extended range "woofer" and have aluminum tweeter compression horns (they have been known to need new diaphragms at least once in a few decades, mine never did) the crossovers each lost a knob otherwise they sound fine. You name the make! BTW they have been played quite loudly.
