Bravo a worthy thread - agree on good lighting - so far nobody has gone off the deep end and built a positive pressure clean room… maybe…
I use the black light to trigger another run thru the US cleaner…
Stylus cleaners
I used to use Onzo ZeroDust with my first few cartridges years ago. With the last two cartridges, Hana ML, I have only been using the included Hana brush for every side of LP and the MoFi LP-9 liquid stylus cleaner (I get as much fluid out of the brush by pressing it against the neck of the bottle before I clean stylus) every 3-4 records.
Onzo is collecting dust especially since the Fremer’s The Tracking Angle article.
I’ve been looking at DS Audio ST-50 but at $80 I’m not sure it will do anything better than my current cleaning methods.
What’s your stylus cleaning routine?
@faustuss thx for the detailed last to yet another brush process, I appreciate that rigor and shall consider adopting it. |
that makes sense @tomic601 I started this thread as I didn’t see any recent in depth discussions on stylus cleaning methods and tools. Great info here thank you all!!! |

Good tip on the clip-on desk lamp. Looks as if it might be a NÄVLINGE from IKEA? It should double as a strobe light, too? Next time I have a spare 3 hours I will pop into IKEA then try to find my way out again ... |
