I thought this would be a mixed bag on responses. I will say that I like clean records too. I think anyone that is posting on Agon probably takes good care of their LPs. With that being said, I do know that gruv glide is leaving a residue on my records but, like Chayro said, it doesn't seem to improve or hurt the fidelity of the record. After another day of use and listening, I have determined it does really help to reduce static and background noise. This leads to quieter backgrounds and makes the music seem more detailed to my ear. I can really tell a difference in the lead in/lead out groove. I am going to continue using this product for awhile. I like what I'm hearing and it seems to have no detrimental effects.
I have listened to my system a lot over the past few days. I have had two of those days back to back when the stars align and everything is setup just right and you get some spectacular sound from your system. I have also cleaned my stylus with a Mr. Clean magic eraser. I read about this trick on vinyl engine. It really did a good job on cleaning the stylus and cut down on distortion even furthur. That is another subject for another discussion. I will continue to use gruv glide and report back later. I have some listening to do.
