Does this type of speaker last as long as conventional ones? I know that normal type of good quality speaker can easily last 20 years.

Mine are a few years old with no problems. I have a friend who has had his for at least 15 years with no problems. They are great speakers.

They are good quality. 20 years? I have had them for 2 years now and they seem to be doing ok. However I cannot assess whether they will last 20 years. If you are looking for a good long term investment in your audio setup it may be better to look for options that explicitly guarantee long term duration, as this ones don't say anything about that. In my opinion, if these babies give you 5+ years, it was already a good investment, as I love the sound they have.

I think the best bang for your buck in a top quality speaker, is Paradigm. I have the Studio 40's and I am very happy with them. You can get better speakers but you will have to pay double what the Paradigms' cost, which is about 700.00 each, but in my opinion they are hard to beat. Check'em out.

I'm at 2 years of use, still works like new. Behringer as a brand in general doesn't seem to be as reliable higher end brand. But these subs(B1500D-PRO and B1800D-PRO) and the tops that go with them (B212D and B215D)have PHENOMENAL reviews, way better than the newer Behringer speakers.

I've had mine for almost a year and I've had no problems what so ever. Sound quality is just as good as when I bought it.

I have had mine for several years now. My active speaker (amped) went out right before the warranty was up and they replaced it with a new pair and they haven't had a hiccup since. I don't use mine everyday but I do love these little speakers, great sound and good looks for my bedroom.

Depending on how rough you are with them, they can last for months or days. I have a pair I use at the office that is about a year old and still just about perfect. Another pair had the wires pulled out of the plug when I snagged them getting out of a chair. Not the fault of the earbuds, just a clumsy user. They do tend to take more abuse than the average economy earbuds I used to buy. It does help to keep them clean which is pretty easy with this design as the silicone earpieces come off easily and are easy to clean. The sound channel is wide open, so it's easy to remove any debris that may have gotten caught in it. Depending on how rough you are with them, they can last for months or days.

I have to agree with the other respondents in that I would not expect these speaker to last with any outdoor exposure. I do in fact love these speakers and have them in two rooms currently and plan to expand to a whole-house. Completely indoors. I do have the external Yamaha Speakers which have served me well over the past few years. They are mounted in a case which may not give you the appearance you're going for. But no, these guys would not do well in an outdoor environment.

Well, as far as I know magnets don't ever lose their magnetic properties, so I'm not exactly sure what you mean by the typical lifespan.... but I can say I have purchased these magnets and they are very strong - much stronger than a typical (decorative) refrigerator magnet you might buy in a novelty store or something. So I think they would last you a very, very long time!

I can't attest to these but I do have a set of 12 year old X220 speakers that have had a fair bit of use (even hooked up to a TV) and they still sound like they did when I pulled them out of the box.

I have boss speakers on my boat which is 6 years old and they are still working fine. I purchased the same speakers for my kids golf cart and they are doing great. However, they have not been in the weather much as of yet.

As long as you cleean them properly they last. I have had mine for 2 years, just brought em out last week for a project and works great. Just be sure to properly disassemble and clean them and thes are a fine investment

if it has one, i don't know what it is, sorry.i can offer this as i have purchased this one a few times...i would say it lasts at least 3 years. out of the (6?) i have bought, 4 of them were clear clean sound. i felt like the other2 weren't as loud, and there is nothing you can do to adjust it.it wasn't bad enough to return them.

I've had mine for quite awhile now and they still sound the same. Just don't have it about 15 when you start it or you might blow a speaker

Yeah, they are pretty durable for earbuds in this price range. I use them all the time (like 4 hours a day) they are in and out of my pocket and my kids play with them. They last me about 7 - 10 months, I guess.

I've had my Sennheiser HD 202 since January of this year. I don't abuse them, but my impression of them they are built to last. This are heavy duty and I don't worry about fraying the wire or connectors. Worth the price.

I am not sure but Ive owned these speakers for 5 years and have been happy with them . The sound quality is good . One thing I did not like was the keyhole for mounting on the back of the smaller speakers but besides that they are good. Hope that helps you a bit.
