Brand New Vinyl Static and Pops

Nothing major, but annoying.

Could it be because I was spinning old dirty vinyl which made the platter dirty/dusty?

I'm about to buy the humminguru. Does anything go well with it?

I don't think that is the issue. And as I mentioned I played the new lps several times (maybe 3 times each) with no static or pops.

jjbeason14 OP Details Discussions Posts This discussion Message User 412 posts 03-25-2023 at 02:44pm Copy Comment URL Report Comment Edit Delete Hey, I think it's definitely a static elec problem. How much is the CS Port and "DSAudio? Some recordings have static Some do not. I tried the Spin Clean and the Humminguru, both without luck. The discs look very clean, but there's no difference in terms of static. Thanks everyone for your help! 👍 I not referring to new viny, but older. Any idea if these would work? https://www.amazon.com/Milty-5036694022153-Zerostat-Anti-Static-Blue/dp/B0033SHDSS/ref=sw_ttl_pd_ewc_purchase_sim_0?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0033SHDSS&pd_rd_w=c2cbY&content-id=amzn1.sym.6c765dbf-3487-473e-b7c7-4a06a3685c33&pf_rd_p=6c765dbf-3487-473e-b7c7-4a06a3685c33&pf_rd_r=2V9ZDQBCAE9K14JH44RN&pd_rd_wg=rs5YG&pd_rd_r=6adbd60b-dc76-4dd2-bd02-ca1174d80caa&th=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CDN7QJO/ref=ox_sc_act_title_8?smid=A3KY1G6IMKRKPX&psc=1
