We have been through multiple speaker pairs since 1967 (@ around $700 a pair...and they all DIE.) The speaker Cones are mounted on FOAM. The foam disintegrates over time. The speaker will start to rattle...time to replace. Love my OLD KLHs.  NB
PS: Anybody on hear old enough to remember KLH...??

KLH was originally an R&D company in Cambridge Mass founded by three guys named Kloss, Low, and Hofmann. A small company by today's standards they manufactured 30,000 speakers per year. I had several pairs in the early 70s but I don't think they were new.....
