I think most everyone that was serious about music remembers them. Not of great value, although they sure looked like they would do something. I got a VPI vacuum cleaner over thirty years ago and cleaned all my records and then the thousand of so I bought since then. Very few of mine have pops. But then my streaming sounds as good as my really good vinyl system, so I don't really play them any more.
Vinyl records & Discwasher cleaner
My vinyl record collection was stored for 40 years with multiple moves through out the years. Last stop was work. One day I entered my office and unexpectedly found boxes of 700 albums. Someone needed space and without asking piled them in office. Moved them to my home. Got me thinking. Divorced, kids out, home with rooms I can play loud without disturbing neighbors. Why not go for it. I restarted my journey back into the HIFI world. Turned out to be an expensive move.
Now a days, as with most, streaming is the preferred mode of transportation in the journey if HIFI. From time to time, I pull a record out to play. Most of the time I’m stunned when I hear most of them have little pops or other noises, if at all. Then I remember that I was pretty religious about cleaning them before play with Discwasher cleaner.
Does anyone else remember using Discwasher with their records back in the 70’s? sure there’s a few of you young chaps that used it.
Not sure when they stopped selling them. Most likely early 80’s when CDs done them in.
