How can I save my rotel 1062 from getting dust inside?

Thanks for your advise

Just be careful about dust/cleaning....

Ok. But what about inside? i dont want that the dust will cover all the circuit inside.

cover up all the holes/vents.

That's probably not a good idea

Well you couldn't turn it on, but thats the price you pay!

I need a real idea.

What do you do to save it?

Just keep it covered with a suitable piece of cloth when it's not in use. That will keep it clean inside for years. I recently had the top off a 6 year old Cambridge amp that was spotless inside.

I may be wrong, but I would have thought that the heat generated by amps would create rising air, which would make it less likely for dust to settle in the internals when it is in use.

A real idea? Instead of tackling the problem after it has happened, eliminate it before it does - air-condition your whole house. Should only cost a few grand. Job done.

What?

A rack would be of some use (if you don't already have one). You could always write to Russ Andrews, i'm sure he could come up with something....................
Alternatively:

Moving as far away from Urban areas to avoid pollution will be of great benefit and with house prices as they're now y ou could have your solution for less than 200 grand.

Why worry about something that probably never will cause a problem? The likelyhood that you drop the amp whilst cleaning, empty beer into it whilst drunk, short it whilst playing with cables, fry it in a thunderstorm or you yourself getting run over by the rush hour bus is probably greater.

It made me laugh. And yes I agree drummerman, It probably isn't worth worrying about to much. I just make sure not to put it anywhere where the dust may be excessive and do put it where it is well aeriated.

Now you're talkin'.

What about dust mites. They eat dust don't they? Could you train some to patrol the top of your amp?

Now that's an idea I can get onboard with. My own private army of dust mites to clean my flat while I'm at work...

Hehe. Just make sure no one you invite round is asthmatic.
