"Record cleaning brooms have been around since the early 1970s. While some record cleaning brush solutions require manual care for the vinyl record, the Pro-Ject Sweep It is a natural hair broom with a record brush that runs in sync with the tonearm. The record broom removes dust and aids in record care during playback, as your stylus spins on the turntable. Many record cleaners at this price point require record cleaning solution to keep dust particles from interfering with your analog listening experience. For those who would prefer to avoid using a record cleaning machine, handling cleaning fluid, or managing a record cleaning kit with each listen, this aluminum and natural add-on is a powerful solution, especially when compared to cheaper velvet brushes and microfiber cloths." - Pro-Ject

COMPATIBILITY
- The record broom can be placed in one of two left hand side corners of the turntable. The placement is depending on the type and shape of your turntable. At the optimal position the brush should align with the spindle (i.e. the center of the platter). Deviations (relative to the spindle) between 1,5 to 2 cm are well compensated by design of the Sweep it S2. Higher deviations can cause more drastic skating effects.
- Not recommended for non-Pro-Ject turntables
- Please measure your turntable to determine compatibility
