[QUOTE="Waterhond, post: 57017, member: 1200"] My problems with sudden onset distortion is usually related to 2nd hand records that no amount of normal cleaning can rid of all the muck of the ages. In fact sometimes "cleaning" using a velvet pad and "record cleaner" can worsen things.The resultant tar-like accumulation on the stylus tip can only be cleaned (using my resources) with a stylus brush and some alcohol. Had one recently that was so resistant to normal dry brushing that I thought the diamond had somehow fallen off! Truly horrible sound! Some day I'll be able to afford a cleaning machine... [/QUOTE]
