Did I damage my speakers?

I'm worried I may have damaged my new speakers -- I started playing them only 30 minutes or so after I got them inside from 15-20 degree outside temperatures.

They sound fine to me, but I'm realized after the fact I should have let them acclimate to room temperature slowly and now I am fretting about it...

This worrying is really getting to me. Any thoughts most appreciated

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.

If they sound good, don't worry.

Sounds like the upgrade bug already to me.

Whynot: Cryo break in, I believe you may start a new trend.
Seriously though, I bet they're just fine. About the worry, I read this excellent advice on another audio site; "worry is payment in advance for a debt that may never come due"...or something like that! LOL
