Speaker Life


For increased clarity I am separting out this question from my other recent post. How old can a speaker be if cared for properly before one would expect some deterioration in the drivers and crossovers? Thanks

Yes I am talking many years. My current speakers are 25 years old (have changed everything else more than once) and I am concerned about transistors and capacitors in the crossovers beginning to operate outside of specs.
I am now looking at upgrading with used speakers and wondering about the wisdom of getting very expensive when they were first bought and now 10 plus years old or more, and therefore now cheap. Comparing this to moderately expensive and say now 2 years old such as Sophia's Watt Puppies etc.
