Carbon Fiber Brush with Milty Gun?

I use the Zerostat first (3 spot it) when the platter is still

then the brush once I get it rotating

having records cleaned with a KL Audio LP200 ultrasonic cleaner removes static like a charm, almost never have it and the pops that come with it. The KL Audio and Audio Desk are a true godsend to record reproduction - low level details, low noise floor, body around the instruments, etc.

a lot of the time I forget to zerostat and with the KL Audio don't have any static issues at all
It wasn't like that before

oops I see someone mentioned the KL Audio above
it's $4k not $3k
worth every penny

no static at all

Sorry FM....I should have put the £ sign in front of that number. (Even then the dealers would probably charge us £4K these days...)

Moonglum, Re your reference to the effect of electrostatic build-up on the cantilever, if one examines the cartridge in the area above and to the sides of the cantilever/stylus assembly, one can always see a local accumulation of dust or dirt, after playing several LPs. I don't know whether those particles concentrate in that area due to ES attraction or not, but it certainly makes sense.

I own the original discwasher anti static gun in red plastic as opposed to the milty blue. Have not really had the need to use it. I do use my audioquest carbon fiber brush every day. Its a pretty effective brush.

Just a quick update am now using Furutech Destat 3 with Ramar and Levin record brushes which are the best by far,
