skonopa Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 What is the safest method of cleaning dust out of the driver cones in the speakers. My RF-3s are fine, but there is some dust in my Infinities (I had these speakers nearly 5 years) and would like to clean the dust out of them. Could I just simply take a soft cloth and wipe them out?

justin_tx_16 Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 try a can of air, just make sure to hold it upright and don't jerk it around while spraying. ------------------ -justin SoundWise Support A technical help site created by me and my fellow Klipschers I am an amateur, if it is professional; ProMedia help you want email Amy or call her @ 1-888-554-5665 or for an RA# 800-554-7724 ext 5 Klipsch Home Audio help you want, email support@klipsch.com or call @ 1-800-KLIPSCH RA# Fax Number=317-860-9140 / Parts Department Fax Number=317-860-9150s> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USparc Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 yes, a soft cloth will do it. Don't be scared to damage them. You have to really poke them hard to damage them. Just wiping it won't scratch them. ------------------ ------------------------- Receiver: Pioneer VSX-909RDS DVD: Pioneer DV-525 Screen: Thomson 46" RetroProjection Front: RF-3 tFTP Rear: RF-3 tFTP Center: RC-3 tFTP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klipschguy Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 Use a soft bristle paint brush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audible Nectar Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 I use a 35 year old Electrolux canister vac with a round brush attachment (attachment brush is made of horsehair). The brush is non scratching - it's ideal for electronics, computers, and furniture. The Electrolux machines have a suction control on the wand, for use on more delicate parts, so I don't suck my Cornwall's woofer paper into my vac. Often, these old "luxes" are found at garage sales for cheap - and the brushes are easily replaced if the original brush is missing. It's worth picking one up (believe it or not) - they are tailor made for this duty. I got mine as a hand me down from my mother, but if the Electrolux tank dies, I'll replace it with another one - they work that well. ------------------ First we Rock, then we Roll!
