Did I damage my speakers?

Phil and James --

Thanks very much for your responses, they are reassuring.

Lindisfanre --

I appreciate what you are saying, and it is I think what we all can go through in a situation like this. I guess I sure don't want to sell -- these were expensive speakers and hard to come by, and they sound excellent to me. I know that this is the bottom line.

I'm just trying to get some information on how badly I screwed up, and what the potential implications are. So far it seems like I'm probably okay, but I hope a few more folks will weigh in.

Thanks again.

For some more reassurance I think you did no harm. The surround on the cone and the cone its self are on the thin side and will change temperature quickly. After 15 minutes I think they would be at room temperature.

The MDF and or other materials will take some time to get to room temps but they don't move (besides a little expansion and contraction due do temp.) So no harm done.

I agree with those who say if they sound all right they are not damaged. If you want to put your fears to rest get a hold of the manufacture and see what they say.
Regards,
Todd

If they sound good, don't worry.

Sounds like the upgrade bug already to me.
