I'm happy with my green sharpie on the edges, and of course, my Tice clock.

I read about that Audio Desk doo-dad years ago in the pages of "Stereopile" [sp?]. I mostly remember it being very expen$ive.

I use the inksAll pens at home; only sharpies at work- they are “okayed” by P&W.

And they do have German ink in them.

 

[Gepetto]

You can get the companion record cleaner too...

 

[Gepetto]

Or the original...

 

[mlucitt]

I would rather spend my money on White Oak Audio parts...
At least I will hear an improvement in the sound quality.

He didn't test it correctly, should have had a vacuum pump and N2 purge going so that the cutting was done in an Oxygen Free atmosphere.
Also none of that equipment is as sensitive as a human ear, especially a golden ear that is accustomed to listening to the very best (most expensive) audio gear. Makes perfect sense that he could not hear the obvious improvements, this is what happens when troglodytes try to enter the exclusive world of true audiophiles........
