Loudspeaker Rates

You got some GREAT advise from a professional rebuilder, why are you asking. If you want to go with BR surrounds , go for it. It will change the sound, plain and simple.. It will be what you turn it into.. There is a place for BR, fabric, or silicone surrounds. I have drivers with silks and wire from 1934. They work perfect..

New foams with treatment will last 30 years if you rotate the driver 180 every 2 years or so..

BR 50 years

Fabric, 100 years

Silicone forever... :-)
