Cleaning the laser, advisable?

I have owned my Meridian 508.24 for approximately three years. I have read all kinds of claims of various products
of the benefit of cleaning the cd laser. Can anyone share their experiences? I am a bit hesitant and would like to hear some firsthand accounts. Thanks.

I tried a similar product with a cleaning brush and solution after the transport manufacturer (Spectral) recommended the lens cleaning. Transport promptly went into shock, made a terrific racket and shut down. That was the first and last time I've tried it.

Sean, once the disc was removed, the player recovered and has been working without obvious sonic deterioration for the last year. I decided to leave well enough alone, but I agree with your basic idea and should send it in for a health check of the laser assembly.
