{"product_id":"clearaudiosmartmatrixsilentdcsi","title":"Clearaudio Smart Matrix Silent + Cover, Silver","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Clearaudio Smart Matrix Silent + Cover is a record cleaning machine with single-sided wet cleaning, delivered including the matching acrylic cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis order number refers to the \u003cstrong\u003esilver machine with cover\u003c\/strong\u003e – in other words the set, not the bare base unit. Underneath, it runs the same technology as all Smart Matrix Silent models: multifunction arm, integrated pump, record clamp, sound-insulated extraction turbine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy silver with cover?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSilver, because the unit looks less like a workshop tool next to light-coloured equipment and racks. Cover, because when washing records cleanliness is never a side issue: whatever dust settles on the brush and vacuum arm between two uses otherwise ends up in the wet groove at the next wash. The cover takes that worry off your hands, with no maintenance effort at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMachine and cover in one box, plus clamp, adapter and a starter supply of cleaning fluid. The platter turns in both directions, so the brush reaches the dirt from two angles. Extraction is thorough and quiet; afterwards the record is dry, the background quieter, and noticeably less statically charged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Smart Matrix Silent + Cover in silver for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor collectors with a fixed spot who want to look after their equipment rather than dust it off every time. Straight talk: anyone who has to get through big stacks quickly should reach for a machine that washes both sides – here you flip the record. And the collection tank holds around half a litre, so it needs an eye kept on it during long sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe most rounded package in the Smart Matrix family: quiet, cleanly built, protected in storage. hifitest praised the series for its \"excellent build quality\" and \"trouble-free, quick-to-manage handling\" (hifitest 3\/2020). Whether silver or black suits your room is something we're happy to clarify in advance at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil – so no one has to send anything back afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e record cleaning machine, single-sided wet cleaning with vacuum extraction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e incl. matching acrylic cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e apply fluid, brush, extract; flip to change side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTurntable:\u003c\/strong\u003e clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFluid application:\u003c\/strong\u003e automated via integrated pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNoise:\u003c\/strong\u003e sound-insulated extraction turbine (clearaudio states no dB figure)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord formats:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12, 10 and 7 inch (single adapter included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTanks:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 0.4 L cleaning fluid, approx. 0.5 L collection tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMax. power consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 300 W (0.0 W when switched off)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHousing:\u003c\/strong\u003e MDF, silver finish; cover made of acrylic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × D × H):\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 345 × 345 × 250 mm with cover fitted (approx. 345 × 345 × 235 mm with record clamp)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 10.6 kg (unit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 years on timely registration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's included:\u003c\/strong\u003e fully assembled machine, acrylic cover, record clamp, single adapter, filling funnel, IEC power cable, 2 spare microfibre strips, 500 ml Groove Care, cap for the fluid tank, tube plug, warranty card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the cover really included with this silver variant?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. With \"Smart Matrix Silent + Cover, Silver\" the acrylic cover is part of the scope of delivery. Without the cover, the product is simply called \"Smart Matrix Silent, Silver\". Watch for this addition when ordering, so the right one of the four variants ends up in your cart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes it clean one side or both sides of a record?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne side per pass, then you flip the record by hand. Cleaning both sides in a single wash is handled at clearaudio by the smart double matrix and the Double Matrix Professional Sonic. In return, the Smart Matrix Silent is more compact, quieter and considerably cheaper to run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow much space do I need for the unit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the cover fitted, around 345 × 345 × 250 millimetres; without the cover and with the record clamp, around 345 × 345 × 235 millimetres. Allow a bit of clearance on the sides so the multifunction arm can move freely and you can easily reach the collection tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich cleaning fluid goes in it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded is 500 millilitres of Groove Care, clearaudio's alcohol-free variant. Alternatively there's Pure Groove with isopropanol, which is stronger against greasy soiling. Shellac records need Pure Groove Shellac – the other fluids aren't intended for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Clearaudio Smart Matrix Silent in silver with cover at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause we've lived and breathed vinyl for decades and can tell you when the cover pays off and when the base unit is enough.
