Vinyl is Forever

The Hydraulic LP Cleaning Apparatus MKll

 

Yes that's right, vinyl is one of the greatest
gifts to the preservation of the art of music. Digital is inferior and tape
recordings deteriorate. Preserving these vinyl pieces of art is important for
the enlightenment of future generations. This cleaning system was developed
over the past 30 plus years. It is simple, effective and economical.


Cleaners that touch the LP with the force provided by a vacuum can cause damage
by flattening the lands, the delicate area that separates the grooves,
distorting the information contained in the grooves. The inrush of air
developed by a vacuum cleaner can dry an amount of the cleaning agent before it
is removed leaving a residue behind. The inrush also dries the liquid along
with dirt on the pickup tube and can have the effect of sandpaper. Some
cleaners reuse the cleaning fluid. The GEM Dandy touches the LP with clean
water only - not contaminated water from a dip tank. The LP is mounted on a
rotating mandrel with protective label covers that repel the water. The Super
Solution agent is applied to the LP surface to loosen the contaminants. A jet
of water from an orifice is applied to the grooves at an angle that flushes
away the debris. This system rivals an ultrasonic cleaner costing many
thousands of dollars. This is the only method that has a chance of recovering a
flood damaged LP. System is supplied with Mandrel Stand, jet Hose, Super
Solution and GroOove Lube

The cleaning system is
supplied with GroOove Lube

----------GroOove Lube the LP Elixir
of Life ---------

The GroOove Lube product has been in use for many
years. Its primary function is to eliminate the slip stick problem as the
stylus traces the grooves. There are three benefits from this action.

One: Quelling this slip stick action helps eliminates
induced resonance vibrations of the stylus and cantilever. The stylus to grove
motion without the cantilever resonance lowers distortion.

Micro level sonic reproduction is dramatically
improved thus enhancing detail. The total presentation is more lifelike.                     

Two: GroOove Lube also extends the life of an LP.  After more than 500 plays, a James Taylor
(JT) LP is the proof. This LP is still quite and sounds as it did when new.

Three: The stylus life greatly extended.

Play an untreated track then apply GroOove Lube as
directed. You will be pleasantly surprised.

The best $169.00 you will ever spend on your
playback system!

Without vinyl there is nothing. Shipping weight 6LB.
