In Reply to: How long do speakers last? posted by Cam Baskey on April 8, 2007 at 12:21:26:
I have a vintage and pristine pair of Electrovoice Patrician 800's that are almost 40 years old. I got them from my wife's uncle who bought them new in the late 60's. They are original - nothing has been done to them over the years. These are corner horns with a 30 inch (!) woofer and midrange and tweeter horns. They sound fabulous! They possess the best bottom end I have ever heard from a home system. The mids and highs are not as truthful as my Vandersteen 3A Sigs (which are in my main rig) but nevertheless, these are really great sounding speakers at the ripe old age of 40 years. At the time these were produced, they were likely the best speakers on the planet. I am really fortunate to have them.
