{"product_id":"clearaudiosmartdoublematrix","title":"Clearaudio smart double matrix Record Washing Machine","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Clearaudio smart double matrix is a record washing machine that wet-cleans both sides of a record in a single wash cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBig performance, compactly realised: the wash unit is modelled on the double matrix professional SONIC, but comes in a noticeably slimmer form. A slider lets you adjust the contact area and pressing pressure to any record size, the cleaning fluid is dispensed at the push of a button, and you control the individual steps yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the smart double matrix?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause cleaning both sides in one pass simply saves half the time – and because clearaudio has consistently left out what many people never use. No automatic cleaning programs, no LED fill-level display, no Sonic vibration modules. What remains is a quiet extraction turbine, an antistatic brush unit, and an operating concept you've mastered after two records.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA compact machine in a black, satin-finished acrylic housing that, at around 5.4 kilos and a footprint of 22 × 29 centimetres, fits on any sideboard. A sturdy clamp with label protection keeps the label dry. By the way: the supply and collection reservoirs are, for the first time in clearaudio's history, 3D-printed in-house – good for resources and spare-parts supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the smart double matrix for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor collectors who wash regularly and want both sides done in one go, without paying the price of a professional machine. Bottom line: if you need a fill-level display, a vibration module and automatic programs, you'll end up with the double matrix professional SONIC. And if you only clean a handful of records every few months, the single-sided Smart Matrix Silent is the more affordable option.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clever statement: two-sided matrix cleaning, compact, quiet and without frills. It takes around two minutes for a heavily soiled record – after which it's done, while other machines are only just starting on the second side. If you take your collection seriously but don't want to finance a full washing line, this is the machine we're happy to talk to you about at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e record washing machine, two-sided wet cleaning in one wash cycle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurntable:\u003c\/strong\u003e clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtraction:\u003c\/strong\u003e quiet extraction turbine inside the housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAntistatic:\u003c\/strong\u003e integrated antistatic brush unit to discharge static build-up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperation:\u003c\/strong\u003e fluid application at the push of a button, cleaning steps individually controllable, brush pressing pressure via slider\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecord formats:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7, 10 and 12 inch, contact area adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWash time:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 2 minutes for heavily soiled records\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot included:\u003c\/strong\u003e LED fill-level display, Sonic vibration modules, automatic cleaning programs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax. power consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 190 W (0.0 W when switched off)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousing:\u003c\/strong\u003e satin-finished acrylic, black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × D × H):\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 220 × 290 × 210 mm incl. record clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 5.4 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 years with timely registration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScope of delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e smart double matrix, clamp with label protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the smart double matrix really clean both sides at once?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The machine washes both sides of the record in a single pass, so you don't need to flip it. For heavily soiled vinyl, clearaudio reckons on around two minutes per record. That saves noticeable time once you're working through larger stacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat record sizes does it suit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll common formats, from the 7-inch single through 10-inch to the 12-inch LP. The contact area can be adjusted on the wash unit, as can the brush pressing pressure via a slider. That way, every record gets exactly the treatment it needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow loud is it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe extraction turbine sits inside the housing and is explicitly designed to run quietly; clearaudio doesn't publish a decibel figure. So it's not a whisper-quiet machine, but far from a workshop vacuum cleaner either – it runs without any problem in a living room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference to the double matrix professional SONIC?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe smart double matrix takes over the basic idea but deliberately does without automatic cleaning programs, the LED fill-level display and the Sonic vibration modules. In return, it's noticeably more compact and affordable at around 5.4 kilograms. Two-sided cleaning in one wash cycle is retained in both cases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes it come with a clamp to protect the label?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, a sturdy clamp with label protection is included in the scope of delivery. It keeps the label dry during the wash and centres the record cleanly on the platter. Cleaning fluid isn't included – you choose the one that suits your collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Clearaudio smart double matrix from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause we use record washing machines ourselves in everyday life and tell you honestly which one suits your collection, space and budget.
