I had an early model Harbinger Vari series 15 blow a horn. The large driver still worked but the whole speaker sounded very muffled. I was able to replace the high frequency driver with a $20 aftermarket component. I've since sold the speaker to a DJ who uses it as a floor monitor and loves it.
I had the light up party pack Gemini speakers. I bought two at separate times. The one has been my TV speaker for 4 years. The other one worked about 5 times and the power amp section died. A replacement circuit board costs more than I paid for the entire speaker.
I have [and still own] owned several Yamaha powered speakers. Zero failures.
I have two Power Werks/Kustom-PA 50's. 7++ years and going strong. I had some Kustom-PA dual 10" powered monitors. Got a great deal on them from a band that used them for years. They worked great. I sold them to a guy who's been gigging with them 3+ years. No failures.
