Mmm, I use the dryer sheets too. They work, people always comment how clean and fresh my speaker smell. ...I just tell them it's because they're from Canada.
But really, I did try it and thought how cool is this. In between dryer sheets however I use (not swifter) the Pledge "grab it", "dry cloth", the same thing I use on my TV screen. I can't stress enough to use ONLY THE DRY ONES. My friend bought the wrong one (with polish) and it's a good think I was able to warn him prior to using them (on his TV).

If you toss those dryer sheets in the ol' hockey bag, it helps keep things... more fresh.

Instead of using swiffer wipes/pads specifically for cleaning speakers and electronics, I've found that re-using anti-static softener sheets from loads of laundry works great, as well. Instead of tossing those used dryer sheets, save them and use them for dusting purposes. They retain a moderate amount of anti-static capabilities and they're soft enough not to damage any precious finishes. Plus, it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy knowing that you're getting some additional use out of a product that you'd otherwise just toss in the trash.




Re-use is good. Microfiber is better. 83,000 tons of swiffer/one use cloths were disposed of into landfills in 2005. And they are not biodegradeable.

Ditto that microfiber. My wife is really big on not using single-use/disposable cleaning products, but eve she has bowed to the convenience of Clorox (or clorox-like) wipes. Maybe I'll pass that statistic on to her.
