Does the Step 4 final rinse for Walker Prelude help?
Emailists, I couldn't help myself. Doesn't AI have four steps also? I have no idea whether one is superior and both seem to be thinking along the same lines. 
Stealth Indra Vs Purist Audio 20th Anniversary i/c
Argyro, I understood that. I have not listened to Purist cables in ten years and no longer use Indra, but I thought I could help. Ultimately, as the first response poster said is right, namely if you heard the two side by side, only you can choose. 
Stealth Indra Vs Purist Audio 20th Anniversary i/c
Argyro, I always remember the encompassing soundstage with the Indra. Nothing else has ever struck me to do this. Ultimately, I think amorphous wire has a sound and I prefer that of silver. My concern now is between the Jade Hybrid (silver and gol... 
Does the Step 4 final rinse for Walker Prelude help?
Rushton, I cannot replicate your speed. I did twelve records, both sides yesterday. It took me 20 minutes for each record. I would expect that the Loricraft string vacuum takes longer. At any rate I have nearly 2000 LPs to go!The Step 4 looks diff...

On a related subject, have you found the enzyme effectiveness deteriorates in less than ten hours? Have you ever done a large scoop? How long does it take you per record to do all four steps? As effective as Prelude is, I find myself avoiding clea... 
Equipment that has made you 'stop' looking?
The weak US dollar has stopped me from looking for anything but US or Chinese made. 
Transistor Preamp that sounds like a Tube Preamp?
Mapman, check out Tone Audio. They import both Shindo and Auditorium. I had the transformer. 
Ground Loop
Mordenmail, you could use screws in the chassis connected to a spade. The best ground you would probably have is your wall plug ground. You could connect the final wire to the ground plug on a male ac plug. Neither the hot or the neutral should ha... 
Ground Loop
Sthomas, do you mean a ground lift switch or a hum pot?If the hum is from the amp and not the speakers, it is probably a noisy ac transformer. If it is from the speakers and you have no hum with no interconnects attached to the amp, it is a ground... 
Does the Step 4 final rinse for Walker Prelude help?
Stiltskin, I have only been doing a final Step Four rinse on previously Prelude cleaned records, so I cannot really answer your question until I do some more records. I do think, however, that you need to use the Step Four brush to really get good... 
Transistor Preamp that sounds like a Tube Preamp?
Mapman, from what I have heard, you will be sorry, but yes, they are too expensive for me.

Jtimothya, thanks for the further clarification. Lloyd has always been into percentage improvement. It is big. I strongly suspect that it is not the alcohol.

Asa, Shindo Latours! I knew there was something I liked about you. I would buy them in a flash, if I could afford them. 
Does the Step 4 final rinse for Walker Prelude help?
Lloyd responded to my email saying the following: "No, using ultra-pure water after the Step 4 would not be better." I would have liked more elaboration, but hey, it is his product. 
Halcyonics under my tt. Wow
Elberoth2, lucky you being able to buy in Euros. Does the Silencer only come in one size? I don't know whether the ARC Ref 110 is too heavy, but my Shindo Labs overlaps the Micro 40 by about 2" on each side.
