RE: Deoxit seldom doesn't work on dirty contacts.

I'm thankful that's all it needed. That was hard enough with 10 thumbs and a random selection of tools. Everything didn't go back like it was, but the sound/performance is just like it should be now. I didn't realize the input selector was messing with imaging/soundstaging too. Now, sound that is supposed to be centered is.

I have an old Parasound preamp that has some scratchy noise in the volume control too. Like your Forte, it's quiet once in position but is noisy when moved. I'll open it up soon to see if I can get the Deoxit to the volume control. I'm also thinking of opening my old Sansui integrated and giving that thing a good cleaning. It's been sittin' up for too long.
