Cleaning speaker cabinet? NHT 2.5i

Hi guys,

Does anybody have any advice on cleaning speaker cabinets? In the manual for my speakers it says to use a damp cloth or a mild non-abrasive cleaner (any good examples?).

I have a pair of NHT 2.5i speakers - I only recently picked them up and they have smudges and fingerprints all over them, I want to see how nice I can make the cabinets look. I have the high gloss black finish to clarify.

I dusted them off with a microfiber cloth just now, but I figure I will wait for some responses before I do anything else. Thanks!

Thanks for the helpful responses guys. I actually posted the same question on a different forum and got a response of using Meguiar’s® “NXT Tech Wax” coupled with their microfiber detailing cloths. From these responses too, it looks like waxing is the way to go.

The guy on the other forum basically said he wiped them down with a damp rag, let dry, and waxed afterwards - is this how you guys do it also? Is there any need to clean with anything besides water before waxing?

Interesting, you think that would work better than wax? I wouldn't use furniture cleaner as I've heard it can have potential to damage the finish (though i'm sure it works for many). I figured I would try some wax though (like that NXT tech wax) as the guy on the other forum actually used that on his NHTs and said it worked very well, but maybe this Plexus stuff would be better? I just read about it online and it looks pretty interesting..
