Do electrostatic speakers "break down" in time?

I am new to Stats, but wonder if there is a general rule of how long a panel can last if it is not abused, kept from sunlight, smoke, and is cleaned for dust with care on a regular basis?
I know perhaps there may be no answer to this, and no answer can be definitive, but any thoughts would be nice.

for the record I own Innersound Eros MKII speakers

no, no, no. If you poke lots of holes in the panel you are only halfway to audio nirvana. You have to add cable lifters and one of those "beaks" from Totem to your transport. I think that the hole poking test was supposed to calm fearful parents of small children and their tendency to destroy daddy's electronics. You can put your Eros through more punishing treatment than a conventional dynamic driver without having them stop working. Enjoy your existential doughnut.
