When I had the Audio Desk, I reduced the amount of factory fluid based on input from other long time users. I could still see the effects of that fluid residue afterwards- water spread across the disc fairly evenly, as if there were still a surfactant of some sort present, breaking the surface tension. Theoretically, the ultrasonic cleaning as a finishing step, without the contact of potentially polluting brushes, or static inducing vacuum wands, is best. However, I still got better results on some records by point nozzle drying the ultrasonically washed, but not forced air dried, record. One can do this without spending a fortune on machines- DIY ultrasonic plus used Loricraft will get you there.
Premium distilled water for ultrasonic record cleaner
I have a kLaudio lp200 ultrsonic record cleaner
I recall a few comments on reading threads about some special high grade distilled water
i can't seem to find anything via an audiogon search
klaudio says plain distilled is what they use
woukd anyone like to chime in with recommended top grade distilled waters
what properties make these special water brands stand out and the advantage to the sound of the records
a link or two would help
on a side note Klaudio is having a sale on their silencer and I went ahead and bought one
anybody using this silencer?
thanks
