The newest version of the Audioquest record brush is grounded via your body; the bristles are in electrical contact with the handle. I have found that this works pretty well to dispel static charge in the process of wiping an LP before play. All the other cures and preventatives mentioned here probably have one degree or another of benefit. My own biases make me skeptical about Gruv Glide or any other spray used anywhere near my LPs or equipment. That's just my personal opinion, and I don't believe such sprays are essential in view of the other available options.
SME 20/2 Static Electricity
I love my 20/2 but I get a lot of static electricity on the platter, especially in the winter.
Maybe a platter mat will help. Anyone had this issue and resolved it?
I'm considering one of the many static removing devices as well.
I never had this much static on either of the Clearaudio decks I owned previously. Must be something related to platter material?
Thanks in advance for your help.
