Yeah I’m pretty diligent with cleaning. Once every few weeks I’ll pop it out of the case and give it a good brush down with an anti static brush. I wouldn’t have asked this question if I felt I was negligent with maintenance and cleaning care. But I do agree they are mobile speakers after all and are exposed to so much more than the typical sound system.

My dad found using a combination of suction and a magnet helps him keep his speakers working, just because even if you scrub, but the stuff has really lodged up in there, it might not help. On the other hand he’s a machinist so he’s around a lot more fine metal particles than most people.
