Are contact treatments worth the money?

CAIG DeOxit and ProGold are worth it.

Walker SST and Caig DeoxIT Gold (X2)!

I like Kontak myself....and yes they do work...I use a pipe cleaner and you will be amazed at the amount of dirt / junk at the end of the cleaner when your done

hmmmm. any scientific testing to back up the implied improvements? Got to watch out for that placebo effect.

Science hasn't answered all of the universe's questions, last I checked. My ears tell me that Walker silver paste improves the sound without a doubt. An improvement in transparency was immediately obvious after treating my MC240. I then did the rest of my system. But, it does take a good bit of system resolution before this level of improvement becomes apparent.
