Tonar NoStatic Record Cleaning Arm

I found that you had to set this up by raising the weighted end so that it was higher than advised in the instructions otherwise the brush just slipped across the records. I cannot close the lid of the turntable whilst in use as it stands too high. This means that i am unable to fix the base of the cleaner in position. Apart from these things it cleans the records quite well.

Nice idea but has insufficient height adjustment. I had to make a 20mm thick spacer for it work nicely with my Garrard 301. Needs another 15mm of height adjustment as a minimum.The earthing wire is too flimsy and badly soldered to the connecting plug. It broke away from the plug while I was trying to plug it in.

The anti-static earring cable broke early on, leaving the device pretty useless.. Great while it lasted

Arrived on time.It's a good looking piece of equipment and matches my audio setup. The height of the base unit means that I cannot close the lid of my record player when playing but I just leave the lid raised. Two potential problems, however. The adjustable weight on the arm is unreliable and tends to move whilst the arm is in use. Even when it stays in position nearest the brush, the arm quickly moves across the record defeating the object of having it. I have taped the weight to the arm but no difference, the arm still moves across the record too quickly. This is why I have awarded only 3 stars.

Once this item is set up by a combination of slide weight & unscrewing rear end weight (unmentioned in set up instructions) & pivot point I find it removes dust & clicks my older "Wats dust bug" circa 1970's fail to shift making records owned from new sound as if purchased in 2020.

No matter how you set this device up 9 times out of 10 it skates straight over the surface of the record and doesn't track the groove?

Too soon to add a solid comment, but first impression was ok! No prob to install and adjust the arm.

Bought as a gift and not yet given but he has one on his other deck and is really happy with it.
