How To Keep Cat Off Stereo Equipment?

We adopted a long-hair, one-eyed stray kitten. She is a very lovely cat, however, she likes jumping up on stereo equipment - tube preamp and mono block amplifiers. Am I right in thinking that cat hairs that fall inside the equipment can eventually fry things? Assuming so, I can't be the first person to have a cat AND hifi equipment. How do you keep the cat off? For the record she only jumps up there when she is alone in the room, so I think she gets that we don't want her up there, but just hasn't filed under "relevant info." I would greatly appreciate suggestions!

nonoise, good post. 
I am using Armor All SmokeX citrus spray for a second cat now - I think more than 20 years, the same one. I'm spraying it around the parameter, especially on the cables - about every two weeks, when I remember, or when I see my tuxedo bully coming closer... Works, she runs away without going back. If you have a stand, spray it on the top and bottom of your shelves, and on the cables. Not on the equipment and contact points, of course. With the top of the shelves, see if it is going to leave a stain first.
