AudioQuest Super Conductive Anti-Static Record Brush

About The AudioQuest Super Conductive Anti-Static Record Brush

The AudioQuest Super Conductive Carbon Fibre Record Cleaning Brush is an essential simple cleaning product for anybody with a turntable and some records. It was invented decades ago by Decca and has been in production from a number of campanies almost unchanged ever since. So, it was high time somebody went back to the drawing board and reinvented the humble Carbon Fibre Brush.

Back in 1980 or thereabouts, AudioQuest began making their AQ Carbon Fibre Record Brush which has been a stunning success story for the last 35 plus years, and maybe the world's favourite way to respect and care for LPs. And if you want to count them, there are 1,248,000 highly conductive fibres!

AudioQuest eventually learned that the AQ Record Brush (and every other brand of carbon fibre brush), doesn't have a good electrical path between the fibres and the handle, and that the print-protecting coating on the metal handle prevents a proper electrical connection to the user's hand. The user is the "ground" for static electricity, so having a good electrical contact from fibres-to-hand is a big deal!

In creating their Super Conductive Carbon Fibre Brush, AudioQuest created new tooling for every part of their new design. AQ's reborn Brush has ideal conductivity from the Carbon Fibres, through the internal parts of the brush, to the conductive Gold Contacts placed right where your fingers need them.

AudioQuest also reinvestigated what is possible with Carbon Fibres, finally choosing for their new Brush a far greater quantity of new smaller fibres in order to more effectively sweep away micro-dirt, not just the less relevant visible dust.

To everyone who has an AQ Record Brush, or any brand of Carbon Fibre brush, and to everyone who hasn't yet discovered how simple it is to keep records clean, we invite you to experience the top of the line AudioQuest Super Conductive Record Brush. Your records will thank you!

AudioQuest Record Brush Review

"This new and improved version of AudioQuest's ubiquitous carbon-fiber wonder has "ideal conductivity from the Carbon Fibers." On first acquaintance, the only change JV noted was that the brush feels different (lighter and a bit flimsier) than the original. But who cares? You're going to buy one; JV's gonna buy one; anyone who listens to vinyl is gonna buy one. The thing is indispensable." The Absolute Sound Editors' Choice Awards 2023
