How to Reduce clicks and pops on your Vinyl Records


It is a proven fact that vinyl records are making a comeback, research has shown another dramatic increase in sales for 2018 after a 53% increase on 2017, and research is showing some further increases for 2019. For a one-hundred-year-old format, we think that it is more than nostalgia or enhanced sound quality over compact disc and streaming but pride of ownership is the main reasons people are flocking to purchase their favourite artist on vinyl.

How to Reduce clicks and pops on your Vinyl Records

Vinyl enhanced Musicality

Whilst more difficult to store and requiring more care in the day to day life, the benefits far outweigh these drawbacks for users. The sense of occasion as a record is removed from the sleeve and played, along with the large format artwork I'm sure is part of the appeal, and for me the sense of realism, detail and dynamics along with a warmth and musicality somehow lacking in the digital formats are the main benefits for myself and consumers. The lack of harshness and better musicality compared to the high definition digital format is an odd phenomenon, as many LP's are taken from the digital masters.

Keeping clean from dust

Airborne particles of dust are the enemy of vinyl however dust is very attractive to vinyl and the main reason for that is static electricity. When you slide out your new vinyl album from the record sleeve you automatically create static electricity which is the attraction that dust loves and immediately settles on the records surface producing clicks and pops as the turntable stylus tracks across the record's grooves. However, there is a simple solution in hand to reduce this inherent issue and nip in the bud these problems.
