Method and system for monitoring and reporting speaker health

An apparatus, comprising:

• a calibration component configured to, during a training phase, provide a test signal at different amplitude levels to each speaker of a plurality of speakers, and to gather respective resulting test voltage (V) and current (I) points for the different amplitude levels for a plurality of frequency bins;
• a test data processor configured to, for each frequency bin, apply a linear regression algorithm to the respective test voltage and current points for the different amplitude levels to obtain a respective reference electrical impedance of each speaker;
• and
• a monitoring component configured to, during an operating phase subsequent to the training phase, send audio signals to the plurality of speakers and gather resulting new voltage and current points, to obtain respective operating electrical impedances for the plurality of speakers for each frequency bin, and further configured to determine a respective deviation between the respective operating electrical impedance and the respective reference electrical impedances to identify a speaker for which
• the respective deviation exceeds a defined tolerance,
• wherein the apparatus is configured to modify one or more audio signals sent to one or more other speakers of the plurality of speakers to compensate for sound changes caused by the respective deviation of the identified speaker.
