best fluid for vpi 16.5 cleaner non-vpi brand?


hi,

I just purchased a vpi 16.5 on the 'gon and have not received it yet. It has some vpi's own fluid but wanted to know what people recommend for basic versus deep cleaning with the the vpi.

I know there have been similar threads but they often go onto tangents about brushes and other stuff!!

thanks

thanks for input so far.....is it better than the less expensive audio intelligent?

even though I hear mostly surface noise not loud pops, is the talisman necessary. Some professional reviewers love it but am a bit wary about a powerful magnet near my audio equipment!

Dougdeacon,

Has your demagnetifier been reviewed by any of the professional rags?

I use a dartzeel preamp and amp that sits 12-30 inches away from the tt respectively and they are rather finicky and sensitive so am wary of these products a little! I know it needs to be kept away from the cartridge!

I ordered the AI just because I would prefer not to have to also mix the solution....never was good at chemistry!
