WELCOME BACK. I would wipe them down with a microfiber cloth and use some duster cans if necessary. You don't want to get any chemicals on any of the drivers. I would defer to the original speaker manufacturer's recommended way of cleaning.

Plastic cones? Window cleaner without ammonia- they sell it at Home Depot and other stores, with the Sprayway brand. Microfiber works for the plastic cone and rubber surround, but don't use it with water-based cleaners on a paper cone. Don't use any chemicals on foam surrounds- only water.

Edited.

Simply Speakers sells some treatment for the surrounds of your speakers but it is just for the surrounds not the cones. I used it on my Cerwin Vegas and it is supposed to help foam surrounds last up to 50% longer. Check it out ...http://www.simplyspeakers.com/speaker-repair-cone-edge-sealer-mi-1291fg.html

Why not?
I'm asking simply because I don't understand how wiping paper cones with microfiber would do harm.

I don't know what happened to that post- I meant that liquid shouldn't be used on paper cones, especially water-based, unless the cone is treated with something that's water-resistant.
