Will sun exposure damage my speakers?


I have a window next to one of my newly purchased JM Lab Electra 926s and since I like their look without the grill, I was wondering if I was hardening my cone surrounds or not. They are fiberglass "W" cones so I suppose they are ok but I don't know for sure. Has anyone looked into this before? Thanks! Arthur

If the position allows too much light and you don't have options or glass tint is not of your liking, you might consider adding a fabric cover to your speakers to preserve them. In other words if you leave to work early in the morning and get back early in the evening, your speakers will stay all day long getting the light exposure without you enjoying their look. The covers can be made of decor color matching fabric, perhaps your S. O. stays all day long in the house she can put the covers to lessen the visual obstrusive boxes in your den or living, so maybe you can have a win/win scenario and improve WAF. My 2 cents.
