Go to eBay to get that kind of stuff though - pretty big markup in stores.

I want to eventually get those speakers that look like rocks and use those. But for now, I'm using some very old speakers (the warranty expired in 1972) that came with the house my brother bought 10 years ago. I just put a black trash bag over them and raised them off the ground 2" and have not had any issues.

Thank you everyone for your input. I called a few manufacturers and what I am going to do is disconnect the speakers every night and keep them inside. Everyone seems to think the problem is going from very cold to full volume. I blew a set of 150W rock speakers that I had for over 10 years in just a few weeks last season. This season it took me 2 weeks to blow 2 new TIC GS3 speakers which apparently are used in theme parks all over the world. So I just ordered a pair of PYLE 250/500 WATT waterproof speakers and I intend to run a warm up at low volume for 15 minutes before the show and probably take them inside each night.
