i have an extensive collection of albums, many 30 and 40yrs old. i clean my records and experiance very few infact almost no pops or clicks. i suggest you invest in a quality RCM you will never look back, the only reel tweek that works every time(assuming the record is not damaged).
What exactly causes clicks and pops on vinyl?
Hello All,
I'm sure that this topic has been discussed before but I am a bit overwhelmed by the amount of information here in the forums.
Can the Illuminati tell me what exactly causes clicks and pops on vinyl? Is it static, dust, soiled grooves or a combination of the three?
How do you go about eliminating most, if not all of the noise? I have a very limited budget now (recently bought a home) and cannot afford exotic record washing machines - even the KAB device is a bit out of reach at the moment with yet another interest rate hike here in AU.
Budgeteers, I would love to hear your solutions.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Jan
