Yamaha, well-known as the manufacturer of Hi-Fi speaker systems, recently introduced a new line of three indoor/outdoor speakers, the NS-AW992, NS-AW592 and NS-AW392. All these three speakers combine all weather durability¸ superior audio performance, 5- way binding post speaker terminals, powder-coated aluminum speaker grilles and rubber feet for desktop and bookshelf placement.
For drip, water and UV resistance, the speakers feature high-grade weatherproof cabinets. They also feature a new waterproof woofer for accurate mid and low frequency response. The speakers have an attractive angled cabinet design that makes them suitable for indoor use as well. To deliver clear high frequency sound, each speaker system has fluid-cooled, coated soft dome tweeter.
Available in black and white, the NS-AW992, NS-AW592 and NS-AW392 speaker systems are priced at $599.95/pr, $249.95/pr and $199.95/pr, respectively.
i have two Hollywood HSL12SE subs i bought in 1996. they are in perfect condition dispite a lot of use. sold for $75 each in 1996.
i recently purchased and installed Oz Audio speakers from 1999-2001. they're great (sold for $800+ new).
many things affect a speaker's life, it's initial quality, how it is used, stored, and it's materials are the biggest ones. if the materials rot over time, then the clock is ticking. but most modern speakers are made of 20+ year materials. so it mostly depends on storage (no damage, etc.) and use (no abuse). a quality speaker will last.
i have home speakers from the 80's that look and play like new. the biggest issue before that was foam surrounds (everything else lasted).
as to your question - you should get at least five years out of speakers, 10 or more is easy to attain. regular use at low-to moderate volumes is best for longevity, but a good speaker can take a lickin' and keep on tickin' (so to speak).
best 6x9 speaker
