wood tonic hurts ?

Cosmetically, this wood tonic will make my old speakers look new but I'm wondering if sonically it's going to hurt
them.

Too much solvent based or even oil based treatment can damage the adhesive and cause the veneer to seperate from the cabinate. Fortunately this occured when trying to revive a worthless old table. Use enough, not too much.

ML CLS 1's with Kinergetics SW800 sub towers. Yeah, I love these speakers so much that I get a little kinky with them late at night. Hence... the non-toxic oil ;-)
