In previous conversations around the topic, the feedback was that drivers should at least last 20+ years without any problems. In the last 18 years or more I only had 1 set of bass drivers that perished and it was only on one side of the stereo set up which was exposed to direct sunlight for part of the day in winter. My advice to all my customers is to swop speakers from left to right, even if there is a hint of direct sunlight, or strong UV light from one side.. covers like dustcovers should always be used to protect the drivers. Every little bit helps to protect the investment in a good set of speakers.</blockquote>
