Keith Monks Audio and What We Do
What is "Precision Record Cleaning" ?​
-
A tiny precise suction tip, scanning across the disc a little at a time, removing every last trace of contaminated fluid - especially the mold release oils from the pressing stamper. Noise reduction is of course important, but removal of oils and residues is the biggest benefit of "proper" record cleaning.
-
Removing oils from outgassed materials and excess mold release agents from the original manufacturing (newer audiophile pressings being a prime example) allows the stylus to track the groove more faithfully, optimising the clarity of sound, and allowing the rest of your wonderful system to really sing.
-
Precision Record Cleaning restores and preserves your treasured records and also your precious stylus
-
Safe, proven method and results
-
Yes, "miracles do take a little longer" ... but longer makes perfect. And with the auto shut off (Redux, microLight, Prodigy Delux) or drop-down suction wand (Prodigy) for unattended cleaning, you really won't notice.

Zero Recontamination
​
-
The teaspoon of fluid per record side is vacuumed away and never reused. No build up of oils in the reservoir tank and fluid, no damp pads redepositing contaminated fluids - your 100th record, just as clean as your first.
-
We urge you, please - check out any other cleaner, and think about how it works ... no other technique or brand can avoid these problems, or rightly claim such consistency and performance.
-
Precision Record Cleaning cannot be done cheaply by cutting corners, nor by using "non-audio" industrial tech, microwaves and gadgetry ... this is why the Keith Monks remains uniquely, Keith Monks.
