{"product_id":"clearaudioturntablekit","title":"Clearaudio Turntable Carekit Professional","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Clearaudio Turntable Carekit Professional is a nine-piece care set for turntables that bundles brushes, cleaning fluids and tools for stylus, record and turntable into one case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncluded are the Pure Groove record brush, the carbon record brush \"Doppeldecker\", a stylus cleaning brush, the stylus cleaning fluid \"Elixir of Sound\", a precision aluminium screwdriver, polishing paste, 100 ml of Pure Groove record cleaning fluid, 100 ml of acrylic cleaner and a microfibre cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Carekit Professional?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause dust is the most expensive guest at your system. On the stylus, frictional heat makes it act like a tiny torch on the diamond; in the groove, it eats away at fine dynamics. Instead of hunting for three little bottles in three drawers, you have everything together here – stylus, record, acrylic surface and even the screwdriver for setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA clean stylus and clean grooves: less distortion, less crackle, more fine dynamics. The acoustic haze you only notice once it's gone, disappears. On top of that, regular care noticeably extends the life of both stylus and record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Carekit Professional suited for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor frequent listeners and collectors who care for their own turntable and don't want to improvise while doing it. Plainly put: the set is extensive – anyone who plays ten records a year is more honestly served with one brush and one bottle of cleaner. And a caution about the fluids: included is Pure Groove, a pure vinyl cleaner. You must not use it on shellac records (78s). Always run the stylus cleaner \"Elixir of Sound\" from back to front, never sideways – otherwise the cantilever can suffer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most complete care package Clearaudio offers, and for a high-quality turntable one of the most sensible purchases there is. If you're unsure which brush is for what, or how often you really need to clean, we'll simply show you at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e care set for turntables, records and cartridges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAreas of use:\u003c\/strong\u003e stylus cleaning, record cleaning, acrylic care, setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFluids included:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"Elixir of Sound\" stylus cleaner, 100 ml Pure Groove record cleaner, 100 ml acrylic cleaner, polishing paste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrushes included:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pure Groove record brush, carbon record brush \"Doppeldecker\", stylus cleaning brush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool:\u003c\/strong\u003e precision aluminium screwdriver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase:\u003c\/strong\u003e transparent plastic case with carry handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e vinyl records and turntables of all makes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot suitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e shellac records – the included Pure Groove is a pure vinyl cleaner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded in delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pure Groove record brush, carbon record brush \"Doppeldecker\", stylus cleaning brush, \"Elixir of Sound\", precision aluminium screwdriver, polishing paste, 100 ml Pure Groove, 100 ml acrylic cleaner, microfibre cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat exactly is included in the Carekit Professional?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNine pieces: the Pure Groove record brush, the carbon record brush \"Doppeldecker\", a stylus cleaning brush, the stylus cleaner \"Elixir of Sound\", a precision aluminium screwdriver, polishing paste, 100 ml of Pure Groove record cleaning fluid, 100 ml of acrylic cleaner and a microfibre cloth – all in the case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I also use the set for shellac records?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, at least not the record cleaning fluid. Included is Pure Groove, an alcohol-based vinyl cleaner that attacks shellac made from natural resin. For 78s you additionally need an approved fluid such as Pure Groove Shellac. You can still use the brushes, stylus cleaner and tool from the set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I clean the stylus correctly?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlways from back to front, in the direction of tracking – never sideways and never against the direction of travel, otherwise the cantilever can bend. For the dry routine, use the stylus brush; for stubborn residue, use \"Elixir of Sound\" sparingly. Less fluid is almost always more here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the set also suit turntables from other brands?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The brushes, cleaners and screwdriver aren't limited to Clearaudio turntables and work on any turntable with a classic cartridge. The acrylic cleaner is specifically intended for acrylic parts – test it on an inconspicuous spot first on lacquered or veneered surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Clearaudio Turntable Carekit at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause we use the care products ourselves on customers' turntables and show you the moves rather than just describing them – especially with sensitive MC cartridges.
