So...

Who ever just tears down their system for a deep, thorough cleaning?

Today I unplugged everything and wiped all the dust off of em that has ecumulated from the last deep cleaning which wasnt to long ago (7 months maybe?) ---

I also moved a few things and did a bit better wire management...

Who else does this every once in a while?

I mostly do it regurally to get rid of the sheatrock dust that still floats around on my room, the dust has cut down quite a bit as of late...

    I do it everyonce and awhile too, mostly to clean out the ports, the subwoofer ports collect cobwebs, funny eh? I'm gonna replace that thing someday...

    I switch out my gear fairly often. When I do switch something out I like to give the RCAs and speaker wire ends a little going over with steel wool. Sometimes I just pull my speaker wires off to cut off the ends and strip some fresh copper. I run a CD/DVD laser cleaner once in awhile.

    The strange thing is that even if I just pull off the knobs and give them a good washing (just the knobs - not down into the swtiches or pots) it sounds better to me when I'm done.

    Every clock change I go through all the connections. One coming up in three weeks or so.

    Used to just make/ break them for a self cleaning, but this time going to give Deoxit a whirl...
    More later,

    I use Swiffer on my equipments and speakers about once a month. I open them up about once a year and give them a good spray of compressed air.
