Hi Doc, thanks for advice on glue, liners and WD40! I think that I will pass on the WD40 - just worried that a coating on the stylus may encourage build up of crud ? The liners work very well used inside the card inners supplied with many records. No more scratching sounds as I remove the record fro...

Hi,

Rega Ela come up slightly more often than Royd - early mk1 (full fluting on front baffle) were developed by Royd and Rega as joint venture? They use Royd drivers I think and have a very simple crossover. I love mine (owned from "new", ex demo' pair).

Any recommendations for new inner sleeves (plain paper/polylined/whatever).

Thanks. Guy

Hi Doc, I remember buying a PVA based record cleaner over 30 years ago :cry: Seemed to work quite well but needed to be put on quite thick or traces of film were left in the groove. Reason I am interested in a wet cleaner is that I was a smoker several years ago, and not sure whether the film mask m...

Dear all,

Just mentioned to my wife that I would quite like a record cleaning machine for Christmas and wasn't shot down in flames

I have read around a bit on the interweb and the Okki Nokki seems to be well regarded. Any experiences/comments/alternatives - not silly money.
