&lt;p&gt;Just curious... I picked up a pair of Penta IIs in great shape with the original sorrounds which are still not tacky and was hoping to prolong the inevitable foam rot. At what point do you start to think about replacing the foam? When it starts to get tacky, or when holes begin to develop? Hopefully I&amp;#39;ll have several years of enjoyment before&amp;nbsp;it gets to this point.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I recently heard from a friend that foam woofer surrounds can be preserved by applying a product such ArmorAll vinyl protectant or vegetable oil on them. Is there truth to this?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;
