| Aren't you sorry you missed out on this one? It's already sold out! LOL @curiousjimTThe only problem with playing Hendrix on this table is you have to turn it upside down | |
| Record Cleaning Machines @oldaudiophile years ago when I was looking at a 40khz unit (which I bought) I scoured the internet regarding the safety of ultrasonic cleaning. I read a report of an audiophile who took a record he didn't care for and cleaned it ultrasonically o... | |
| Wait time after record cleaning @mapman That's dedication. What do you use? @elliot Similarly, I don't use a brush, but rather a Kinetronics Tiger cloth that works much better IMO. Kudos to @Antinn for the recommendation. $9.69 at Amazon. | |
| Wait time after record cleaning "We can go on and on like this for freaking ever." I thought that was a central tenet of the audiophile's code. I'm just trying to do my part. @Riley We all have our routines. Rest assured this doesn't keep me up much a night, lol. Just wond... | |
| Wait time after record cleaning Thanks to everyone for their interest. Like @whart, I typically clean in batches and don't usually listen while cleaning. Millercarbon hit it on the head, though. A tough study for sure. @isochromism-I will usually have the disc cleaned before... | |
| Ultrasonic LP Cleaning vs. “Thread Type” Cleaning (Keith Monks/Loricraft/etc.) @whart. Would those swirls be Sabbath related? | |
| Ultrasonic LP Cleaning vs. “Thread Type” Cleaning (Keith Monks/Loricraft/etc.) @bdp24 Having started where you are currently at, I would offer some unsolicited advice. Unless you have a plans for high end water filtration on your ultrasonic unit, I would clean the records first with the VPI to remove the major crud, then ul... | |
| Ultrasonic LP Cleaning vs. “Thread Type” Cleaning (Keith Monks/Loricraft/etc.) I have to second whart's thoughts on Neil Antin's ebook on vinyl cleaning. It is incredibly detailed and covers all aspects of obtaining cleaner vinyl. Highly recommended. The takeaway for me is that no one singular system is complete in terms ... | |
| Cable Goop Review George is going to freak!! Having used the PPT products in the past, I'm a believer in this type of technology. My question is for those who have experience with the PPT products and have tried this product -is there a difference? Ozzy, I think I remember you removing the... | |
| VAC preamps - too expensive? They are hand built to order. I didn't have such a long wait, though. No shame for waiting, just bad luck is all. In my estimate, still worth it. | |
| VAC preamps - too expensive? I have had the VAC Master with phono pre for about 3 weeks now. Holy Moly!! To me it is worth every penny, and then some. The sound is almost palpable and with texture. I cannot use if for background music while I do something else anymore, bec... | |
| Remarkably better sound possible with just 1 system component change? @ millercarbonWhere do you have your Schumann generators placed? Do they need to be 5 ft off the floor as suggested? | |
| Perfect Path "Solutions" (PPS) eMat @ mooncrikitI suspect only two people have knowledge of the "intricate details" of the PPT mats, and one isn't with us anymore. I don't think that knowledge is necessary though, to understand that they do work. I have multiple mats of the second a... | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning @ fleschler"Not 45, not 80, not 90 kHz. NEVER 120 kHz or higher. All are proven to damage records over time." I have never seen any data that can confirm this and I think it is likely hyperbole. None of the other ultrasonic manufacturers would b... | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning @ antinnThanks for your concern. Perhaps there is little to be gained and a lot to be lost by not going from 5% to 3% isopropanol. I'll think I'll make that change. It's also cheaper. Thank you. |
