The effect of my dog on sound quality


So, just a few hours ago I did some cable swapping and power conditioning experimentation with the little PLC power conditioner and a Wiremold power strip.  Everything just snapped into place - the proverbial veil had been lifted.  I happily made a quick run to the store to pick up some snacks and beverages.  Came back and put on another record, and.....some static in the right channel.  Did a stylus cleaning and checked all the connections to discover that during my trip to the store my dog had peed into the power strip!!!  Thank god nothing was damaged (including my dog).  

I took the power cords out and cleaned the prongs with contact cleaner.  Hopefully that will be enough to save them from damage.  But there is quite a bit of urine in the power strip.  Is it time to buy a new one?  Should I let it dry and try it?  If it sounds better, have I discovered an unknown tweak? :)  Seriously, though, is there any danger in using the power strip after it dries out?  

Cheers,
Scott

Yogi boy - thanks for looking out for me and my dog :)  Now, when I go to Amazon, it keeps showing me various fake fire hydrants (who knew there were so many) "inspired by my browsing history."  LOL.  
You might try 'beheading' a fake hydrant pair and use them for speaker stands...cheap distraction...

If you want to delve into serious pet psych, leave a cd/album out that you can't stand next to one that you like.  Let Killer clue you into which he prefers.  Small dogs seem to like 'metal muzic'...Anthrax, that sort of thing...bass lines that'll loosen nails....;)
