First thing contact the seller asap & "air" your complaint. I've heard that lemon oil makes a good deodorizer; maybe spray some Lemon Pledge liberally misted throughout the room then close the door for a couple days?
Cigar Smell...How to get out of Maggies??
Hello all,
I just bought a pair of Magnepan 1.6s from a seller who did not disclose that he smoked cigars in his listening room!!
Now, I enjoy a good cigar as much as the next guy, but not in the house...and certainly not around my equipment.
What do I do? I can't spray the speakers with Lysol as I'm sure the moisture would not be good for the panels. Likewise, a powder (Carpet Fresh or the like) would also penetrate the grill cloth and get on the panels.
Currently, I have them sitting in the garage "airing" out.
