Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free?


I’ve been cleaning my vinyl starting with spin clean then using Orbitrac cleaning then do a vacuum with record dr. And finally putting on gruv glide..and I still hear some ticks and pops. Is it impossible to get it nearly completely quiet? Would like to ask all the analog audiophiles out there. Please share what is the best method and sequence to clean vinyl..thx everyone.

The better vinyl setups will push the music forward and the noise to the background.

I think that....

Music Lovers push the music forward and the noise to the background.

Audiophiles will hear every little tick and pop. This is also one of the reasons that those that never had history with vinyl - prior to CD - struggle with vinyl.     

Vinyl has a noise floor.

How quiet it is will depend on who did the cut on the master disk.

It varies from record to record.
