Dust???


Does dust affect audio equipment, if it gets in through the ventilation slits? TIA.

Yes it makes it dusty. yecchh! No actually it will affect the cooling of the compnents within. I blow mine out at least once a year and it gives me the opportunity to clean the connections.
Sure it does. It covers the internal components making them heat up more and can cause them to fail prematurely. Dust can also cause noise in a system.
A fan or a vacume cleaner affects sound even more than dust when both work together in a small listening room he..he..
