    Anyone cover their MLs for dust?

    Am i reading this right??? simply not covering them will cause them to die? Mine get used daily but if i go on vacation i should cover them. Not doing this will result in a "loss in magic as stated above?? even without direct sunlight?

    Would it be best to run the output from the processor first to the grotto, then use the l/r out from the grotto to the amp?? thus eliminating the need for the Y cable?
