I have a pair of DIY speakers that I've been keeping in my car trunk the past week here in KC (getting ready for a move). As many of you in the midwest would know, it's been snowing/freezing here. I just looked at them, and can see some ice crystals forming on the metal flange surrounding the woofer. I can only imagine what's going on inside with the xover. Anyway, do you think they will survive the thaw, when I eventually get them inside? I will definitely not hook them up until they have completely dried.
I'm sure they'll be OK, as long as they're thawed out. There's an interesting article on the effects of temperature on loudspeakers here:

Thanks! Luckily, I had my amp shipped separately. Although I do also have my home theater receiver in the trunk along with my Squeezebox, and some hard drives. I hope they are ok.
