The same way a tweeter gets blown: Abuse – i.e., subjecting the speaker to high power levels for long periods, especially signals with limited dynamics.
Some crossover designs are more susceptible to failure than others, however. In the case of my speakers, it was a particular high-powered resistor. Rated for I think 10 watts – apparently not as “high powered” as it should have been.
