My understanding is that most cone based speakers will last 15-25 years plus easy. There really is no "calibration" or repair unless you blow a driver. I've heard varied stories on some planars, electrostatics etc. but even they should usually be good for at least 10 plus years I'd think. I know I've heard many 5-15 year old speaker that perform as they should.
How long do the speakers last before a service?
I know I will get various answer, but are there any simple rule? I am aiming for the used speakers. Say if I get a 5 years old speakers. How long will it last with me (presumeable the previous owner take care of them well) before it needs a service/repaired/calibration?
I would feel awful if I can use a used 1k speakers for only a year or two and then need to pay for the service again.
Any rule of thumb on this?
