How does smoke effect speakers?

I have found it makes female voices sound rough and gravelly, kind of like Selma Diamond.

Depends on the kind of smoke you're talking about, but it can either make your speakers sound like they are firing straight into your brain and especially with multi-channel music, make your feel like you are getting the most insane head massage, or they can make you feel like you want to stab yourself in the heart or into the woofer or jump out your window.

Smoke makes some speakers sound Kool.

I was always told cigarette smoke deteriorates the surronds on old speakers. This is referring to the surrounds that were like foam as opposed to the modern surrounds that are rubber. Don't know if this is true or not.

Thanks guys;My first laugh of the day. 'Wish I was creative enough to add something;besides more smoke.
