First off, it doesn't sound like we really know the source... it sounds like "someone might have heard from an engineer.....", but I'll believe it when I see the words from the engineer, and it was a mechanical engineer working on the engine/drivetrain, not a audio engineer working on the speaker system who heard from his brother that works in the drivetrain dept. that 260 is the maximum safe temp.
Personally, I don't buy it. 260*f sounds extremely low to be a maximum safe temp, maybe they meant under 260 is "ideal".
Second off, from your screenname, I take it you go to/went to NC State. I graduated from there in 2008.
