Kitch, have you tried not using the carbon fiber brush? It's kind of like using a broom without a dust pan. Or play a few seconds of the record then swipe the record with the brush and replay to see the difference. It would really be best to do this with a record that hasn't been brushed for a longtime, a few months. People that know me well know my disdain for carbon fiber brushes.
How often do you folks vacuum clean your albums?
To all you vinyl people out there: I am curious to know, after you have cleaned an old album, then put it on your vacuum machine (I am using a VPI unit), how often do you reclean it with your vacuum cleaner? I have heard answers from "every time I play it", to "only once, then just a carbon brush".
Thanks
Thanks
