RE: MD: Head Cleaners (were Lens Cleaners)
Actually, that may not be the case dude. I checked out the Australian website and they've got the head cleaner there, but not the lens cleaner. That was actually on the US website, but no head cleaner listed up there. So I wouldn't draw the conclusion that if it isn't on the web, it's not in the respective country. Just ask your local Sony dealer, rather than the corner shop, that's all 3#-) Adios, LarZ --- TAMA - The Strongest Name in Drums --- -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of David W.

I note that Richard is in New Zealand and Tony in Australia, while I'm in the U.S., so it might very well be that Sony's lens and head cleaners are marketed there but not here, or they weren't marketed here back when I was looking for such. My lens cleaner, purchased off the rack at Best Buy, is from Maxell; my head cleaner, bought from the late unlamented Minidisc Now, is by TDK. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

They do make a head cleaner too dude - MD-8HCL I should know, I was incorrectly sold one by Townhall Sound Central (and they refused to refund my money, I only had the option of exchange for something else - bastards. Never buy from them!)

Sony definitely *DO* make an MD LENS cleaner. I've got a copy of Sony Pulse Magazine - a consumer catalogue of Sony Products. On the page with all the recording media including blank MDs and tapes, it has a "Mini Disc Lens Cleaner", model number seems to be MD-64CL or something (it's pretty small). There are NO Sony HEAD cleaners listed. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: Head Cleaners (were Lens Cleaners)
Larry asked, | Now there is also head cleaner. Although the lens doesn't not touch the MD, | doesn't the head actually make contact? Yes, and the head cleaners apparently are just soft, non-abrasive lubricators. I've seen people say that they're as damaging to the record head as lens cleaners are to the lens, but perhaps they were just confusing the two. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: Head Cleaners (were Lens Cleaners)
Do any of the MD manufacturers have anything to say about the use of head and/or lens cleaners? Do they recommend them or not? jsl -- == James S.

I'm not sure whether by "MD manufacturers" James meant hardware or disc manufacturers. Since Maxell and TDK makes such cleaners, at least two disc makers must recommend them. Hardware manuals never even mention the things as far as I know. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: Head Cleaners (were Lens Cleaners)
I was actually asking about the recommendations of hardware manufacturers. Sorry for the confusion. No surprise that the makers of the cleaners recommend them. :) jsl "David W.
