Clearaudio introduces Double Matrix Professional Sonic record cleaner

Vinyl is seeing a huge resurgence at the moment, with many claiming it delivers a superior sound quality to digital files and even CDs. The downside, of course, is keeping away dust and dirt, which causes interference and degrades the quality of the sound. Fortunately, Clearaudio has come up with what it says is the best solution to keeping your discs in tip top shape.

The Double Matrix expands on the company’s previous Matrix cleaners, it retains the double-sided vacuum cleaner, which cleans both sides of the record at the same time, but adds a new sonic component. Clearaudio says the new part uses sonic vibrations to loosen dirt from the grooves in a record, making it easier for the vacuum to suck up the undesirable detritus.

The Double Matrix can clean LPs, EPs and singles and saves you the work of changing or adjusting brushes as they automatically adjust to different diameters and thicknesses.

The Clearaudio Double Matrix Professional Sonic record cleaning machine is available now for £3250.

But being the wonderful English guy he is, he helps out with content across a number of Future sites, including What Hi-Fi?. It wouldn't be his first exposure to the world of all things hi-fi and home cinema, as his first role in technology journalism was with What Hi-Fi? in the UK. Clearly he pined to return after making the move to Australia and the team have welcomed him back with arms wide open.
