It is seemingly the Solution used for cleaning that is the key to the end result being able to substantially impress or not, tools used are merely tools being used. If I were to change a Cleaning Solution it would be one identified by Neil Antin ... 
why expensive streamers
@8th-note This is a Thread I am revisiting and carefully reading the content. Your Post covering a Streaming Source as Qobuz > PC > DAC AND FLAC > PC > DAC. Where each are compared to a CD Source from a highly recommended producer of ... 
Quandary
@rvpiano states, "I'm really happy with my System" What more is the Goal. For me such a statement means the end sound I experience, as I don't do too much with the capturing of ones thoughts with a aesthetic. Function before Form is how my Audio...

I make no secret of the Label I now give my manually cleaned records using the PAVCR Manual Cleaning Method, as being Purified as the end product after the cleaning process. I attribute 90%+ to this end result as being the Mixture for a Cleaning ...

Listening Room
If one wants to have the ultimate seat when listening the image is approaching as Ultimate as it can get. On Cross Channel Ferry Crossings between GB and Mainland Europe these are used in the Freight Drivers area on the Ferries, what a pleasure t...

This thread went of the rails when the OP brought the Amygdala into their Posts, they went into another realm where they never venture.  Assessing Sound is not all academic waffle, even though in Audio academia has a very large influence on how s... 
Dynavector XV-1S
Which Tip Form was selected for the Windfeld by yourself or Soundsmith. In my mind, a Super Polished Replicant would be the return to Original Spec'.        A  Geiger FGS, or Paratrace would be closely following the Replicant in Styli Form. FWIW...

There are uses of a US Tank that can cause damage to materials. In my early days if setting up a tank, I was advised to put Aluminium Foil in to it for a period of time and check to see when it perforates. The idea being to substantially reduce ...

I have been myself unsure about certain ideas selected for the using of a material type to be utilised for the purposes of producing Audio related equipment. Stepping away from Metals only to Thermoplastic / Metals, that took a bit of convincing....
