Venkat,

Nicely said. It doesn't sound crazy to me because I too do like that. Instead of dhothies, I use old cotton sarees to clean my DVD player, TV, amplifier, and speakers on a daily basis. I appreciate your frankness.

I know it sounds crazy, but it works very well for me. I am currently on the look out to to steal a dhothi as my stock is getting short.

Covering electronic equipment is understood, however do you need to cover the speakers as well?

Speakers are also, if not more, important than electronics. There are two issues in a speaker. One is that all modern speakers have electronics inside.

Two; the speakers have what are called drivers which vibrate to create the sound that you hear. These drivers have diaphragms made of thin and very sensitive material. If you keep a speaker's front open and play some music, you will visually see the driver vibrate.

If lots of dust sits on the diaphragm, the quality of sound that the driver generates will change.

What is this happening, one guy is after 'Dhoties' and the other one is looking for Sarees? Any body for 'pajamas' and 'baniyans' [Just kidding]

Put this way, it really sound funny. I was laughing for a couple of minutes with copious tears in my eyes.

Cheers to HiFi, dhothis, sarees and all dress materials.

My friend Suresh uses old baniyans to clean his AV equipment. If he is a member, definitely he would have replied to this post. Unlike dhothies, it is difficult for a guy to steal old cotton sarees!
