How long should high quality speakers last?


My Zu Omen Def MKii (rev B) are going on 13-14 years old. The speakers sound wonderful. I have no intention of parting with them. The speakers came with the latest ZU tweeter design. How long should I expect the speakers to last without any issues? I do not abuse the speakers and run them with my Luxman 595ase amp.

Eventually the materials with degrade. Usually this happens so slowly you do not notice any sound difference. It all depends on cone composition on all components.

I think you should enjoy the speakers and if you are not happy at some point with the performance and sound you can get them reconed. After that, they will need to be broken in to sound good.
