speaker wood care


Is it recommened to apply some commercial wood care products on speakers? If so, what brands or products are best? I live in Las Vegas where it's almost always too dry for fine wood. Thanks for your input.

The simple fact is moisture content should not be falling enough to notice any change if the product was sealed correctly in the first place.

In addition, it takes an extremely dry place to get below 6-7% moisture content in wood.

Lemon oil is useless unless you feel the need to lube up your speakers.
wood likes to be dry. It's moisture that causes a problem. You will get lots of recommendations, mostly from people who are not wood workers.

I wouldn't apply anything.
So, sealing doesn't work, but you admit that it helps alot. OK.

Nothing is perfect in this world. I never said it blocked moisture transmission 100%.

I'd like to hear from members in las vegas that have veneer cracking issues with their commercially available speakers because it's too dry.
