"Recommended" – Hi-Fi Choice
Quiet, Safe, Thorough Cleaning for Records of All Sizes
A freshly-cleaned vinyl record has so much more to offer. It gives you more information, more detail, and better sound. That's why audio experts advocate cleaning not only your latest flea market finds, but also your brand new LPs fresh from the press.
Clearaudio's Smart Matrix Silent record cleaning machine combines scrupulous cleaning with oh-so-gentle handling of your precious vinyl collection. No more dust, dirt or chemical pressing residues. And, as its name suggests, this 'vinyl whisperer' comes with an exceptionally quiet operating mode. What's more, in its new enhanced edition the Smart Matrix Silent is smarter than ever, sporting a raft of intelligent upgrades.
"The Clearaudio Smart Matrix Silent cleaning process is very easy to use and while not entirely silent, is certainly one of the quietest I have used," reports an April 21, 2020 review in England's Hi-Fi Choice magazine, which awards the Smart Matrix Silent "Recommended" honors. "It’s more expensive than some record cleaning machines we’ve seen, but its build quality and ease of use make it a worthwhile investment for any serious vinyl collector."
Easy and Intuitive Operation
Operation is easy and intuitive. To start the cleaning process, simply swing the arm into place. There is no need to even press a button. Selecting functions and features is exceptionally intuitive and effortless, thanks to new high quality, tactile push buttons for all controls.
The multi-functional cleaning arm deftly handles cleaning fluid application as well as suction and is easily adjustable to clean any size record, whether it is vinyl or shellac. For ease of maintenance and transport the cleaning arm can be removed without the need for tools.
Trickle-Down Technology from Smart Matrix Professional Model
Key technology components of the Smart Matrix Silent, including the motor, pump, cleaning fluid reservoir, and waste fluid tank, are identical to those in Clearaudio's top-of-the-line Smart Matrix Professional model.
The Smart Matrix Silent comes with a matching universal clamp designed to hold any size of vinyl or shellac record securely in place.
