| Cleaning a record collection can be tiresome, time-consuming or just difficult to keep up with; but it’s an essential task if you want to ensure the best possible sound quality and guarantee a long stylus life. A key part of good maintenance is keeping dust out of your grooves, as too much debris in a record groove can easily stick to the pick-up stylus and cause unwanted artefacts in the sound. There are many ways to reduce the amount of dust inside a record groove, but few are as convenient as Sweep-IT S2. As opposed to almost every other cleaning solution, which requires you to clean your records while they’re not playing; Sweep-IT S2 cleans in real time, just before the groove reaches the cartridge. Position Sweep-IT S2 on your turntable and make sure that the brush is placed in front of the needle when the record starts. Simple as that. Key Features:
