Are advances in technology making speakers better?

B&w every few years upgrades there speaker line and other manufacturers do this to.  But because I have the earlier version does this mean it's inferior? Cable manufactures do the same thing.

How much more effort is required too perfect a speaker? my speaker is several years old and all the gear and the speaker are all broken in. And now I'm being told to upgrade.
 

I am so confused what should I do?

They'd need to prove to you first that what they are offering to upgrade to is significantly better for you.

With the ongoing materials and components shortages, this may be not the case.

For instance, I remember a decade ago neodymium magnets were used in many new speakers, even budget ones. Now they are rarer. Ferrite rules.
