Durable Drivers

I inherited a set of 12 "Knight KN 612 HC 3 way speakers in an enclosure built by my Dad. Speakers are cosmetically beautiful, in spite of being stored in a warehouse for 20 yrs. But they sound pretty buzzy with a fair amount of static. I don't think they're very high compliance anymore; I suspect the cones are fairly brittle and dried out.

Anyone have a recommendation for a replacement? They should be able to handle 100W or better, and be durable enough to survive in a shop which is hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Does not have to be High End, just a) durable in hostile environment; b) able to make a lot of sound; c) reasonably priced.

Thanks
