Check out the older D1 B&W’s. The tweeter has ferro fluids that go bad in 10-20 years. The newer b&w’s like the D3 do not use ferrofluids.

I had heard that somewhere before, but could not find anything more about it. I had heard that the tweeter can just stop working or more commonly, the sound of the tweeter starts becoming harsher / harder / more abrasive sounding (i'm not good with describing audio sounds). Can anyone find a link to any articles that confirm this?
