While spinning some vinyl, I became painfully aware of how much dust had collected on my Denon DP-300F turntable... not just on the dust cover either... the plinth was coated in dust as well, even though it spends nearly all its time with the cover closed. I've kept the platter and the cork mat clean, and my records of course, but after I wiped down the dust cover and plinth, I realized that the dust cover is pretty much made of static electricity... literally... the hairs on my arm stand up if I bring them near the dust cover.
I removed the cover and wiped it down with a damp cloth and put it back on, and there's less static now, but why would they make a turntable out of a plastic that attracts dust like that? I know... because it's cheap...
Anyway, any recommendations for some sort of anti-static wipes or something I can use to keep my TT clean?
