Review Robert H. Levi:
I tried LArt on all kinds of LPs, new and old, classic and newly remastered. It worked well every does not appear critical that one use distilled water, though I did. It states in the instructions to shake well, but dont get carried away, because the non-alcohol cleaner bubbles up. It applied to the record without fuss and was removed home brew Ive used for years contains alcohol. I cleaned successive records on one side with my brew and the other with LArt, and LArt won every time! How, you ask?? The LArt makes records sound more dynamic and airy. The alcohol-based fluid sounded clean, but constricted and sort of flat. I panicked, but thankfully I had been remiss in the frequency with which I washed my LPs. I quickly used the LArt on the sides I had treated with the alcohol blend and they seemed to improve. Time will tell, but I am retiring the home brew for LArt. The fluid improved the sound of older LPs.
I had not cleaned them recently, and LArt performed exactly as Id hoped. At for great used LPs and for new ones, I didnt want to accidentally ruin any. I recently acquired a 45 rpm Louis Armstrong test pressing from Classic Records, and used it as a test. I cleaned half with LArt, the other half was not cleaned. The cleaned side was quieter and more dynamic. The mids were improved, with increased definition and more palpable musical textures. Even 200-gram virgin vinyl sounded better with LArt. An occasional wet wash is the ONLY way to assure that you get optimum LP playback.
I strongly recommend LArt du Son Record Cleaning Liquid. One bottle should last about three years for the typical audiophile. Its the Tabasco equivalent for recordsit perks them up and lasts until your spouse would prefer to make reservations than dinner.
