RRL Cleaner, Vinyl Zyme, and Groove Glide

Ok,

I was the guy who was unhappy with my vacumn cleaned records a few weeks ago and I think I found the answer.

After cleaning with super wash and regular wash, then vinyl zyme, then regular wash, then groove glide,(I know it is time consuming!), I got to tell all of you guys that my records are Dead Quiet and Detail has improved alot. The soundstage perspective is a little more like sitting in row 35 versus row 20, but the smoother detailed sound and presentation is nice.

Just thought I would let others know that I tried these products in case others of you are interested. Definitely worth the money spent.

Oh, we're square! I think that's been proven. I know, I know, speak for myself! :-)

I tried some of the Vinyl Solutions record cleaing fluids the other day, and they worked very well, and were easy to use. I liked them.

Well,
I'm having major problems with my records. There are noise, pop... etc... on all the records. I used some cleaning fluids but it didn't improve at all... :(
Well, for now I stick to my CD player.

Just another rave for AIVS which, IME, leaves absolutely nothing on the stylus that I can detect. I've now done about 75 records with the stuff using a manual Record Doctor (Nitty Gritty) RCM, and find it really amazing. Caveat: I've never tried RRL, but it's hard to imagine that it would produce better results.

Dopogue,

I was a dedicated RRL fan before AIVS. Not anymore! After cleaning a ton of records with AIVS I've seen nothing but a clean stylus also. And still have noticed no degradation of the vinyl, at all, sonically or otherwise.

Looks like a winner to me.
