That’s wild. It’s something I thought about with my speakers and subs at the lake house. So far so good. I didn’t want to have to box them up every winter. Hopefully no little critters take a liking to the equipment.
rodents getting into speakers via speaker ports
I am weary of speakers with open ports especially of those that aren't covered by a speaker grill. Most of us live in real worlds that occasionally get mice into our homes. Also insects such as spiders and roaches also get inside speakers. Transmission line speakers sound great but with that open slot at the bottom looks like it is inviting rodent damage.
I bring this up as I watched a video on YouTube where a deadly Cobra got inside a speaker via a low uncovered speaker port. The snake handler removed the speaker horn and through the opening used tongs to pull the snake out of the speaker.
The link is time stamped to where the snake handler examines the speaker on the lying flat on the floor.

I myself would rather put a speaker in the dumpster and go shopping for new speakers than risk death from a deadly snake.
