Product Description
Vibrating at approximately 11,000 VPM, the DS Audio SC-001 brush physically lifts dust from deep within the grooves. The SC-001 Sonic Cleaning Brush is a sonic-vibration cleaning brush whose bristles vibrate 11,000 times per minute. Even the fine dust clinging to the record groove—which an ordinary brush cannot remove—is physically loosened and lifted away by the vibrating bristles. With the groove clean once more, the record’s original sound is brought back to life.
Optimal brush material selected through measured dust removal performance
The brush material for the SC-001 was determined through rigorous quantitative analysis. Using high-sensitivity cameras to visualize dust particles on record surfaces, we measured residual dust levels before and after cleaning. Multiple candidate materials were compared based on their actual dust removal rates, and only the material that demonstrated the highest performance was adopted. The “optimal brush material for vibration” can only be derived through measurement under actual vibration. This data-driven approach—measurement-based decisions from the material selection stage onward—forms the foundation of the SC-001’s exceptional dust removal performance, which exceeds that of the competitor brushes tested.
Dual static suppression: Low-charging bristles and conductive fibers
Records become statically charged when removed from their sleeves and during brush cleaning. In comparative testing, conventional brushes without anti-static functionality showed little reduction in static charge — in some cases, friction increased it. Even brushes with anti-static functionality achieved only partial reduction, falling short of complete elimination. The SC-001 addresses this through a two-stage approach: low-charging bristle material suppresses new static generation at the source, while conductive fibers integrated at the rear of the vibration drive unit discharge existing charge on the record.
