<p>My Audio Engine speakers were covered in dust so I borrowed my daughter's makeup brush last month to clean them. Given they're not exactly cheap and the speaker membrane is rather delicate I needed something fairly soft to clean with and a duster was out of the question. After successfully removing a good few months of dust I thought to myself: "This is awesome!" and decided to get my own. Of course, being a modern man and totally at ease with my own sexuality plus a mature individual who doesn't embarrass easily I made my daughter buy one for me.</p>

<p>Computers are dust magnets, I'm no scientist but I suspect it has something to do with heat and electricity? Keeping things clean such as keyboards etc is a nightmare which is why many of the Geeks I know just don't bother cleaning. Personally, I can only stand it for so long before I have to do something about it.</p>
<p>If you do consider nicking your sisters or the wife's make sure it's a good one with nice soft bristles you don't want to be exchanging dust for small scratches do you.</p>

Good afternoon. This is really helpful advice. I will stick to this advice. My speakers have been in need of cleaning for a long time. Great post. Thank you.

Are they anti-static? I expect whatever photographers use would work too, but may have a premium price. I was actually dusting my desk yesterday as it was getting bad. That shiny black plastic shows it up. I used a cloth to gently wipe my speakers that don't have covers on the cones. May have to get a brush.

Yeah, I was using a lint-free cloth but was so scared of damaging the membrane the cleaning was pathetic. Now, it's just a couple of flicks with the brush. Dunno why I didn't think of it before?
