To Rlawry's point: I pre-clean virtually every record that goes into the ultrasonic, to reduce the amount of contaminants that pollute the bath. There's no 'one way', but using a conventional vacuum record cleaning machine with appropriate fluids, followed by a pure water rinse, is a predicate to the next step of cleaning in the ultrasonic. I buy a lot of old records, and even with pre-cleaning, change the ultrasonic water out at roughly 50 cleanings.
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

Seems there is no end to the 'truth' of water. Yes, it is in the 'hearing' the difference, if you can. But better yet, a true audiophile will want to see 'clean'. For that you must put an electron microscope in play. I know, I know they cost mega bucks, but if you are 'serious', like Al Porter, cost would not be important. The 'purity' of the matter should not be important. Remember, it is all about the music. |
One wonders, would it be of any value to place soothing messages on the water container since water so treated produces more beautiful crystals than water that is untreated or treated with alarming or disturbing messages? http://youtu.be/tAvzsjcBtx8 |
