What do you guys use to clean rust off of speaker and crossover terminals? There is not a ton of it, but I do not like looking at it. Is Brasso still the stuff to use? WD40?

probably a small brass wire brush would be your best bet it should remove most of the rust without taking off the gold plating. :)

wd40 is great if it is only a small amount, also works as a preventative in it to help prevent it from comming back

Agree with this.

Also, WD-40 is a water repellent, so it will help keep moisture away.
