I have been wondering about dust in amplifiers, in mine in particular, which is the NAD C320BEE. Sorry to say I've never taken off the top to look inside it. (1) How do they look after several years in there? Is the dust that is bound to creep in there unhealthy or dangerous in any way for the equipment? (2) Could it in any way effect the sound?
To think of it, I had it in for repair 2 or 3 years back and maybe they cleaned it a little bit, but I don't know at all if they did - maybe that's included in any sane repairment (?)
Do you guys who are so into hifi on all levels clean it yourself every other year or something, or is neglicting to clean an acceptable sin?
Now if or when I get to it is it compressed air that is the only solution for cleaning it out? Is there any special kind or brand I should use for hifi? Be as specific as you can, although I live here in Stockholm. I've only seen for cars and such stuff when searching for it here for a few minutes.
