Well, yes and no. For sure you should not forget to turn them on but the intelligent way is to feed field coils power supply from the speaker signal. You make the circuit with 10-20 mOhn input in order do not affect the signal in any way and in case any current flow in you turn the field coils power supply for let say 15 min. That all is being done for year in subwoofers… 
 
The true problem however is not there.  As the field coils induce a magnetic field in driver polls the core is getting warmer, particularly in low voltage drivers. The hot driver sound differently then cold one, so in my estimate you need at least 15 min until driver reach own cruse temperature.  Ask me why one would need it if “here wasn't a huge difference between” between perm magnet and field coils….
