There are many people who are against putting any type of coating on the record once it is properly cleaned and they are certainly entitled to their preferences. I happen to use GG, but only due to its ability to prevent static buildup, which is a real issue in my apartment. Other than that, I don't feel that GG improves or hurts the sound, although some feel it does. This is an old debate and there are many audiophiles on both sides of the issue. As with most things, you just have to try it yourself. Good luck.
Gruv Glide - Do you use it?
Hello AGONers,
I was just wondering if any of you use gruv glide or any similar product. I decided to purchase some on a whim and gave it a try on a few LPs. I used it on a few pressings that were used that I bought in the local record store. Even though I cleaned these with a spin clean and a KAB EV-1, they were still a bit noisy. I applied the gruv glide and it did reduce the background noise and static significantly. It seems to do a good job. I just worry about it leaving residue on my LPs and my stylus, which I know it does.
What do you guys think about this product and the pros and cons of it?
Thanks
Andy Price
