Hello,

I just (finally)bought a pair of rta15tl's (picked them up today)and wanted to clean the speakers up.
can anyone recommended what to use on the veneer (wood) and also
how and what to use to clean the drivers? there is a small amount of white powder looking stuff of the dust caps. I'd really like to know what the best chemicals are to use.

Thanks

    Windex on a lint free cloth works wonders on the drivers.

    Congrats!
    This thread may be of interest. It has the owners manual for the RTA series. There is an addendum for the RTA15TL concerning the acrylic tops.

    Polk recommends a damp sponge for the cabinets.
