~~~~Yes, though I only listen when weather conditions are safe. High winds, lightning, and heavy power usage in heat waves will cause me to not use my audio system. One thing I always do is unplug the system when not in use.
When running pro-audio pa systems, all components, except amps, are protected. Weather "usually" does not stop an event, the show goes on. The theory is: better to have an event with less transparency than to have no event at all due to equipment failure. Spare amps are on hand. I have shut down rehersals due to close lightning strikes for 15 to 20 min.
