Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions could baseboard heater damage speakers?

I have some Qs8's on a wall (3 1/2 to 4 feet high) and right underneath there is a baseboard heater, my question is... can the the heat generated cause any kind of damage to the speaker on the bottom of the qs'8


thanks for any and all replies

Hi,

Highly unlikely. In the days of old undoped paper-cone woofers, the heat might cause changes to the composition of the paper, thereby changing the rigidity of the cone and the overall performance. But with Axiom's aluminum-cone drivers, I doubt there would be any negative effect.

Regards,

Thanks Alan for the response,

as the cold is dawning on us, when i turned on the thermostat my thoughts were focused on those qs8's now i can rest assured.
