How do you clean the dust off your acoustic lenses

In my BL3s under the lens there is a little rubber cover which is dusty

The manual says I shouldn't touch it - so how do you clean the dust off yours

There's no easy way as the angle is all wrong to get a brush in there.

I'm not suggesting this, but at LifeStyle AV we actually strip the top section off which gives you a clear angle of attack on the tweeter and rubber surround. That's the only way to thoroughly and properly clean that section I'm afraid.

The good news is that after manually unscrewing the top brushed aluminium trim it's not difficult to get the top section off.

We do the same with the BeoLab 5's too.. but for mine at home, to give them a quick spruce, I use the little 'lipstick brush' which is provided with them.

Thank you 

Or a blast of compressed air from a compressor (if you have one) or bottled/canned compressed air used for hobby spray painting in the home.  But start at a distance.

I'm using a classic feather duster.

That little rubber cover is the surface of the dome tweeter...not something to touch indeed. I've not had to dust mine, if/when I do I'll just spritz, carefully, some canned air. It's not like the tweeters are doped fabric, those can get really fuzzy as the doping stays tacky and sticky and can accumulate a startling amount of dust (not that I've ever heard any performance issues from it on such speakers though).

Perfect!
