If they are working when you get them they should keep on working with minimal care. I have Staxen 30+ years old.
Keep them away from dust and don't get them wet. Stax sells a plastic cover although you could use a gallon freezer bag. I personally have never covered mine. I suspect the main problem you may encounter is that if you use a transformer, rather than an amp, you run more risk of driving them to arcing.
