Will audio gear be ok in unheated house


I have a cottage.   I drain the pipes and the house is left unheated over the winter.  I have been taking my audio gear home (except for the speakers)  when I leave in the fall  for theft worries, but  mostly because I am not sure  the equipment will be OK in an unheated house in an often damp environment until the late spring when I return.

It is a pain taking it back and forth and I would prefer to leave it there.  Maybe in garbage bags with some bags of dessicant in the garbage bags.

Anybody have any experience with this.  I have been unable to find a good answer searching the web.

 

Thanks

Yes, fluctuations in temperature and humidity in a non climate controlled environment can be detrimental to any part of those speakers including the cabinets and veneer. 

 

Beginning to sound like it's just easier to take your speakers with you!

Peace of mind knowing they're safe.
