How do I vacuum my MartinLogan speakers?Vacuuming will be most effective if the speakers have been unplugged for six hours to twelve hours (i.e. overnight). You need not worry about the vacuum pressure damaging the "delicate" membrane. It is extraordinarily durable. Dirt and dust may be vacuumed off with a brush attachment connected to your vacuum cleaner, or you may blow them off with compressed air. When vacuuming or blowing off your panels do so to both sides, but focus the majority of your attention on the front of the panels.
My friend has been using a small shop vac with a soft brush attachment to vacuum his ESL57 panels for years. I do this to mine and yes,there is definite improvement from doing this as I've witnessed it several times with my own speakers.
