S7horton is both right and wrong. First and foremost avoid large changes in ambient humidity. Too wet is usually the case, but too dry can be just as bad. When the moisture content falls below 6-7% the cellulose bonds within the wood become very brittle and can crack (could affect the sound in something that relies on box reverberation). As for applying something, a lot depends upon the finish type and none of them will add moisture nor will anything keep the speakers from losing moisture in order to reach stasis with the environment. With that said, it is hard to go wrong with a good paste wax such as Johnson's (not auto wax) to protect the finish. Ultimately, you should consider adding moisture if it is really that dry. FWIW, an air washer (filter) such as a Venta should work great for you.
