| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning It's a pleasure, slaw. | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning @slaw I don't know. But I trust them to meet spec. | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning @slaw It depends. First on the quality of distilled water (which is standard), and the sample of RO water (which is not).If I were doing that measurement, I would try an instrument called a 'megger', which typically reads resistance with the help ... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning @slaw Thanks for posting your experiences. Glad it's working for you! I am sure that it will help others to achieve better results.As for your RO question, I think it is a good one. I used distilled because it has very low concentrations of dissol... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning @slaw Good idea about the RO systems. Think that's absolutely right. I like to finish with distilled water.Chemistry - I like to use 40:1, measured with lab glassware. But a measuring cup would work fine, if you are careful.Glad to see that it's w... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning Re-reading my post of March 6, I should have written7. Observed no AUDIBLE change or difference of any kind. | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning Hello Audiom.I use a 6 litre tank. Well made, good features, no regrets. Since it's a lab machine, I trust its specs - and the results are quite surprisingly good, even for my high expectations. | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning Hello Nolo. Welcome!I have done such an experiment - it was my first act of US ownership. Methodology:1. Wash both sides with VPI 16.5.2. US clean both sides for 5 minutes.3. Turn off the motor, so that one sector of the record remained in the ... | |
| Brand new to vinyl: Help! Do not despair, Thy.Set-up is the missing step in most vinyl rigs. Few can do it, and fewer bother. Yet it is not hard - it just requires perseverance.Alignment, set-up, whatever it’s called - you need to adjust the relationship of the stylus to t... | |
| Thinking out of the box here. It might make some defensive XY, I doubt if very many people doubt that differences between cables exist. I suspect that many doubt (a) the correlation between cost and quality, and (b) the bang per buck. | |
| Thinking out of the box here. It might make some defensive XY, that was FUNNY. Thank you. | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning @slaw RE rinsing, I should add that it is important to start with good water. It's not too hard to get rid of the suspended solids, but the dissolved minerals are hell. RO is about the only way to reduce them, and even then you have to worry about... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning @slaw You ask, "Ever tried a carbon impregnated filter? Is this a possibility in our application?"Yes and yes. I go one step further to carbon block filters (0.5 micron particle filtration) for the next-to-last rinse. | |
| Tonearm Advice Needed IMO, the biggest problem we face is set-up. A Koetsu on a Durand, if poorly set up, will be bettered by a well set-up rig in your price range. Therefore, choose an arm which can be precisely set up, and will retain its settings. I set up to parall... | |
| Thinking out of the box here. It might make some defensive Another man answered an ad for a music school. He was told that practice, or even holding an instrument, was unnecessary; all that was required was meditating upon the inner nature of the instrument.Surprised by this, the prospective student quote... |
