Hi All,
Whilst my Linn Brik's are generally in a brilliant condition after being very well looked after by there original owner, I was informed by Lintone Audio who I purchased them from that they supplied them originally and that the purchaser had spent most of his time in America,during this time all of his Linn based system had been covered with cotton dust sheets so no UV on the foam grills.Apparently whilst he was away Lintone had been called on to periodically to check and if needed service his system so its condition had been continually monitored
I'm now beginning to notice that the foam grills are starting to look a little worse for wear, they are not disintegrating but just collecting the usual house hold air bourn dust
So I thought that I just might try to give them a bit of a spruce up I was thinking of just laying them in a bath of warm soapy water and giving them a very gentle agitation by hand, So my Question is , is there anybody out there that has had a similar problem and did they use a similar method to clean the foam grills or is there a better method.
Just before the suggestion is given to replace or remove them , I like the look of them with the grills in situ and they are not in the position of needing to be replaced,( yet ) although I'm not sure about that after cleaning.
