On the paper speakers, (as opposed to polypropaline speakers) if they are stored and not used for a long time-span does lack of travel of speaker paper material shorten the life-span, (causing it to become brittle and crack before it would if broken in and the material subjected to movement on an ongoing basis) ? I have several speakers I store in boxes, I just don't currently use them, same as speakers in older cabs (they sit), must speakers be used to last ? or doesn't it matter whether paper speaker material is stored or used ? Assuming I have JBLs, Jensens, Celestian's that I have boxed and stored in a well balanced environment (with not too much heat or humidity) is older speaker paper material prone to faster degredation when not used ? ADDED IN: My reason for adding this is some of the older speakers (such as Jensen golds) and JBL's, aren't something I particularly wish to sell (at least yet), HOWEVER if in storing them they will just fall apart, I will need to sell these. Not everything can endure being stored, hence it's of little value to me *now*, and if it won't last, I might as well let somebody get these who will use them before they fall apart. |

In the conditions you mentioned, the lack of paper movement should not do any harm whatsoever. I did try and search for info on it but came up empty. |

Paper does not dry rot. You need to worry about what the connection of the speaker cone is made out of. If stored in consistant room temp location of 60 to 75 degress they should be fine. |
