Dust prevention/protection of AV units/AV furniture

Same dust issues in Mumbai, earliest I used cloth, non woven matls, transparent plastic etc etc but non worked as intended
Finally I have Tailor made squarish cover from Umbrella cloth & elastic band at bottom for snug fit. Umbrella cloth is very light weight, very easy to remove & put back & store also, I feel it’s gives better dust & moisture protection than cloth.

This is how I have designed the cover to protect the Speaker,
whenever speaker in use just untie & drop
Finished listening, just pull & tie up

I had some spare japanese velvet & satin lying around which I made into covers. The 3050i velvet covers have loops for easy removal during a listening session and the cdp/amps are covered with black satin pieces. Luckily for me this arrangement keeps the dreadful infamous mumbai dust out.

All Mumbaikars thinking smile
 
@amrutmhatre90 I have used spare tulle to prevent creepy crawlies from entering the bass reflex ports of the 3050i.

To be honest, I feel the insects would run away if they do enter inside this, 3050i produces enough bass that the insects would think where the hell they arrived :D
Not only 3050i, I feel most ported speakers or subs shouldn't have rodent or insect problems.

If anyone had problems do let us know.
