Just like any other devices, a bass amplifier needs to be cleaned properly in order to preserve its proper functioning and appearance. Aside from that, a bass amplifier also needs constant cleaning so that dust won’t harbor in it. Generally, cleaning a bass amplifier is not simple, because you need to ensure that its function will not be affected by how you cleaned it. If you own a bass amplifier, here are the steps on how to clean it affectively:
• Switch off and unplug the amplifier. It is necessary to unplug the bass amplifier before you clean it. You should also wait until the bass amplifier cools down before cleaning it, especially if you have just used it.
• Use a vacuum to clean the outside portion of the cabinet. Generally, bass amplifiers have cabinets with closed back types, compared to guitar amplifiers with open-back cabinets. While you are cleaning the outside portion of the cabinet, you should also observe for some sounds of debris, which could harbor inside and may affect the quality produced by the speakers of your bass amplifier. If your bass amplifier has a vent, then you can tilt the amplifier towards that side and vacuum it in order to remove the debris.
• Use a rag made of cotton and wet it with a cleaning solution when you are cleaning the face portion of your amplifier. Do not spray the cleaning solution directly on your amplifier, because it can cause damage. Do not forget to clean under the knobs, because dust may also accumulate there. It helps if you turn the knobs to the extreme left and clean it underneath, then turn the knobs to the extreme right and clean it again. Through this method, you can ensure that everything is properly cleaned.
Never use oil-based products in cleaning your amplifier. Only use a cleaning solution that is intended for your amplifier. In addition, it can also help if you will be constantly vacuuming the amplifier because it can also eliminate unusual odors from your amplifier.

Sony Str De 597 Connect the receiver to the subwoofer speaker?
At the rear of the receiver there is a single RCA jack (phono socket) that is marked "audio out" and "sub-woofer". This is a mono feed that can be connected to a powered sub bass unit. It will not drive an un-powered bass speaker that does not have an internal amplifier. If the bass speaker is not powered, the audio out from the receiver can be taken to a single channel of another amplifier and the bass speaker then connected to the speaker output of the amplifier.
Can you connect a normal bass speaker to a system that has an active sub out put?
An output for an active sub-bass unit is a line level signal, typically around a volt or so. It won't drive a speaker directly so an active sub incorporates and amplifier to drive the loudspeaker. The way to use a passive bass speaker is to take the sub output into another amplifier and use one channel of the amplifier to drive the passive speaker. It's an easy solution if there happens to be a spare amplifier at hand. If it will involve the purchase of a new amplifier, it may prove more cost effective to buy an active sub-bass unit instead. However, passive bass drivers tend to be used in higher quality systems so it might offer a great quality sound with a good amplifier.
