leftwinger57 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I have posed this to another forum and would like a concensous of ideas on the subject. Just getting back into vinyl w/ a Denon DP -11f tt w/ a Grado GF-3 cartridge all sounds fine to me. The albums about 30 now all picked for their rating from a trusted forumite and visuall inspection at GoodWill. The cleaner I chose was the brush ans fluid swipe type for $15 w/ shipping from Amazon.I know they washing machines in hundreds and all others w/ price ranges to match . Will this suffice in the short term. Also not knowing how old and use of the cart is I think when funds permit will be either the Grado Black for around $60 or a Shure model that goes for $75 . Listen I do not intend to reverting all my efferts tetaining a giant record collection ,but just those few classocs that just makeit worth while to have another source to play.So far mostly all the albumscome w/ an A to A+ rating w/ little or no skips or pops.The person before me knew how to take care of his collections. So knowing all this would this be a good starting point. http://www.amazon.com/Grado-Prestige-Black-Turntable-Cartridge/dp/B0006DPP9W/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1370601732&sr=1-1&keywords=grado+black http://www.amazon.com/RCA-RD-1006-Discwasher-Record-System/dp/B000KMZKTO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1370601489&sr=8-2&keywords=record+cleaning+kits http://www.amazon.com/Shure-M97xE-High-Performance-Magnetic-Cartridge/dp/B00006I5SB/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1370601580&sr=8-3&keywords=record+cartridges 2&keywords=record+cleaning+ki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
germerikan Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Welcome back into Vinyl. If you want to drop a little more coin (around $90) I could suggest the spin clean. Manual cleaning but very easy to use and you can do lots of records in a short ammount of time. http://www.spincleanrecordwasher.com/ To the carts there are many more knowledgable here so I will refrain from including my half knowledge. Have fun with the new table!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lo123 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Spin Clean provides an entry level manual cleaning method for not many bucks. Check for pricing on various sites including Amazon, the Spin clean site, Acoustic Sounds etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
