Ah! Good to read some sort of confirmation on the idea. Without actually putting it to the test I would be able to talk myself into either possibility. With your observation we have a good idea that it doesn't amount to much.
When it gets cold enough in winter I use an IR space heater that I am very fond of. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed making the room nice and toasty for a comfortable night of music. Of course I was able to suggest to myself that radiating a little infra-red towards the speakers might be good for making the diaphragms a bit more limber. Well, at least it will be good for making myself a little more limber then. Toasty, even. Nice and toasty. I'm almost sorry winter is drawing to a close now. It's one of the reasons I chose low heat producing equipment. I'm sure it would have been welcome for 4 or 5 months a year. And pretty much unbearable for the rest of the year if I didn't come up with some supplemental cooling. I do not see Wootan's in my future. Which is OK. I am, admittedly, pretty much a solid state guy. How often do you see someone admit to that in an audiphile forum? I wonder that if in 50 years or so from now that the 'Old Guys' will spontaneously offer that they prefer solid state and digital? Probably not.
