I have the paper sleeves. Maybe not ideal. Can get poly lined ones next time. I have about 500 records. So will use what I have first. The machine has literally left the vinyl like new. Be interesting with some of records with what look like scratches.
Listening to ELO. It reached a point where it just stopped on the record and repeated itself. Now it is perfect.
I can recommend the innersleeves from Spincare. They are as good as the ones from Mofi and are far cheaper. They are British and easy to order for you. Try them out and you wonât have static problems in the future
My Project cleaner leaves records looking pristine but they donât always sound that way. Would be interested to see what a Humminguru or Degritter could do to improve that.
Okay guys. Get the point. Lots of inner sleeves that are better than what I got.
The important thing is the records sound amazing after deep clean. Loving new machine. I donât think the sleeves will cause massive issues and undo all the good work. The Linn felt matt has dust on it anyhow, so expect it to not be perfect. Also record cleaner doesnât clean the inner part when recors finishes. So will pick up dust and static feom varuous parts.
Degritter so far so good. So Pink Floyd Animals was quite poor before. Still has snap, crackle and pop on first deep clean though. Might need another deep clean. It takes 15 mins to do deep clean. Just put record in and it cleans and dries them. The other records so far have come out perfect. This is first one which still isnât great! Itâs an improvement, but could be better.
Give it a second play DanâŚI sometimes find a record still sounds a bit noisy on first play after a clean (no machine, all hands), but then is very much improved on second (I usually play it again almost immediately). I think the stylus maybe further cleans out the grooveâŚ
Will give it a go!. Make sense as stuff may still be grooves loosened. When I bought Neil Young Harvest it sounded awful. Wasnât cleaned. 2nd play sounded amazing. Stylus cleaned out dust and dirt.
