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 use a system at home for my transport that consists of a CD disc with two small brushes on it [one for wet, and one for dry]. Gosh, the name of the product escapes me now... Anyway, you place a small drop of cleaning solution on the wet brush, insert it, hit play and follow the directions, which amounts to choosing track four at the tone, and presto you're done.

Recommended cleanings are every ten hours, but I usually only run it about twice a month. I've had situations where it audibly cleared up bad sounding music. I must have let the laser pick up gunk up I suppose, but I don't know how it would. I feel pretty secure with this product. Anyone out there, let me know if I shouldn't be doing this though.
