Storing audio equiptment


Hi everyone, I just moved out of Florida to the Cincinati area and was wondering if my equiptment (amp,speakers,etc) is o.k to store in a non-climate controlled storage space. It gets gets pretty cold here and I wonder if the cold will do damage to my components.

The cold will damage your components if you do not let them warm back up to room temperature. Give them 24 hours at the very least. Very cold storage can result in frost, which can then cause the equipment to catch fire or even explode. I moved in the month of December once and the movers warned me about this. Of course I was in Canada, not in a warm, southern tropical climate like Cincinati :)
