I got a stylus cleaning kit for, but---------


But I dont know if I can use it on my L2 Benz. According to a recent post, liquid stylus cleaners should not be used with a cantilever that has a hollow tube. The liquid could migrate up the shaft and weaken the cantilever structure. I received an Old Pickering cleaning kit as a present. I currently have a gel type cleaner from Extreme Phono. I dont know if its cleaning it good enough. help please. Thanks. Mike

I've been a ME covert as well, but I do wonder? I wonder what the real worth is of LAST Stylast?

I used to use this on a Cartridge now gone, never noted any detriment, never had failures of stylus leaving the cantilever, but let's say if one applied Stylast before every side of LP. Will it remain long enough to proove a benefit? Believe me, I'm all for seeing a Stylus last eveen a few hours longer than it might have without it.

The question is, what are the pros, and cons? In other words, willthe microscopic coating of Stylast smear the best available sonics, and will it offer any better longevity to a Stylus? I appears to me, there might be these two trade-offs. Mark
