Title: Just a reminder: Post by Mark on 01/12/13 at 15:45:00 I just cleaned all my tube sockets and tube pins, my interconnects, amp RCA jacks, speaker terminals, etc. with isopropyl... Inside and out... The difference was like a substantial I/C upgrade... Maybe better... No kidding... Just do it!... (m.)

Title: Re: Just a reminder: Post by Palomino on 01/14/13 at 19:00:47 Great reminder. What did you use to apply the isopropyl?

Title: Re: Just a reminder: Post by Mark on 01/14/13 at 19:44:41 Pal: For the tube sockets, various dental brushes you can get at any drug store...  Q-tips for everything else... The dental brushes come in three sizes [sm., med., lg.]... The only hard part is getting inside of the grounding shrouds on the RCA plugs... If you flatten out a Q-tip, that should do it... Note: I used 0000 steel wool to brighten up the tube pins first; that is, the vintage tube pins that tend to get kinda brownish... Definite improvement...  (m.)
