Very lightly try spraying or really misting Fabreze in front of panels.The stuff works great on clothes by oxidyzing ordors.If you want a clean house you could try one of thos expensive ionizers sold by the Sharper Image or a simmilar product.Particulates,which dust,smoke,and odors are, can be ionized and fall to ground or in the case of the Sharper Image product get collected on a strip.if you are in a warm climate the fabreze and putting them out in sun/fresh air might help.But I would be concerned with build up inside as somebody else noted.
Cigar Smell...How to get out of Maggies??
Hello all,
I just bought a pair of Magnepan 1.6s from a seller who did not disclose that he smoked cigars in his listening room!!
Now, I enjoy a good cigar as much as the next guy, but not in the house...and certainly not around my equipment.
What do I do? I can't spray the speakers with Lysol as I'm sure the moisture would not be good for the panels. Likewise, a powder (Carpet Fresh or the like) would also penetrate the grill cloth and get on the panels.
Currently, I have them sitting in the garage "airing" out.
