As other people have said WD40 is not a good idea. It's a lubricant, not a solvent. I would just cut a couple inches off the cable and properly solder some connectors on. If you must clean it, the best cleaner you can use is electric contact cleaner. You can probably find some at a local hardware store, or an auto parts store. something like this: http://www.builderdepot.com/browse.ihtml?pid=349790&step=5&prodstoreid=4732 -- SuperQ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30135 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
