Dbx encoded discs I am using the DBX NX40 decoder. Nice small unit. I run it through the tape loop from my pre amp. I disconnect the cables from my reel to reel and connect the NX40. Fast and easy. | |
Dbx encoded discs @jcipaleI own about 50 of these albums. They are truly amazing. The sound is spectacular. It is a shame they stopped producing these DBX recordings. The cd was the major contributor to its downfall. At that time in the early 80's all of the buzz w... | |

Strange film on new records. @terry9 I have also tried VersaClean, with scrubbing and in my ultrasonic. I thought for sure that this would be the answer to remove this stuff. Did not work :-( | |
Strange film on new records. @politics_junkieI have had the same problem with a few new records. I tried everything that you have as stated above including steam. It is a pressing defect and it can not be fixed or removed. Return the records and get new ones. | |
A Worthwhile Untrasonic Cleaner @anovakI have a question about your formula above. You stated to add an additional 200ml of IPA (91%) to the tank before starting the cleaning process. That's a little more than 6.5 oz, seem like a lot for a 5 qt tank of solution. Is that correct? | |
