Wet playing of vinyl was used by some hi-fi manufacturers .............It was not a great idea from two sides
- There was water/liquid erosion of good quality cartridge cantilevers which was irreversible and costly.
- Records that have been wet played can after a period of time become dependent on wet playing...........eg the stylus aquaplanes through the groove and as it is now free to vibrate more freely can damage complex passages due to high speed collisions with the groove wall........result accelerated wear ...........
Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!
It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )
