RE: Why wouldn't they last

I appreciate the comments.

I have plenty of clients in Hawaii and other tropical islands. No problems to speak of but the clients do pay attention to humidity levels.

While I don't discount the other environmental issues you mention, the VT150SE I bought from you last year demonstrates the point nicely, I do believe humidity is still the largest issue when dealing with electrostats. No stat likes humidity some will tolerate it better than others.

Even with all these issues panels/speakers should still last much longer than a few months if working properly. I would say your original comment of about 5 years is about right if one does not watch humidity and other environmental issues in their particular situation.

Keep them dry, keep them clean and they should go decades no matter where they are located.
