Anyone ever fried/broke an EVM12L?

[Sludgenutz]

I have been using one for years, but that is no measure. Rated for very high power dissipation (200W for mine), a ceramic magnet, and large diameter voice coil (better cooling), it seems one might be lost to a can of beer, or a finger through the cone.

Any stories?

Yeah, had one go bad that was in a Mesa Boogie Theile cab I'd bought used. Something in the voice coil broke it down, but a $105 speaker reconing brought it back to life, and it was worth every penny.

My favorite speaker for Fender or Mesa Boogie Mark Series amp.
