Hmmm looks exactly like the generic brush that is sold under a number of brands. Bought mine in HMV for less than five quid a few years ago.Originally Posted by Beobloke
£20?!! I can hear Marco's 'SPPV Warning Bell' clanging from here!
Mind you, I suppose it's a bargain compared to the Furutech makeup brush you also sell.....

As of now there are 2,090 CD players for sale in the Home Audio section of Ebay compared to 1,432 turntables. I take this as underlying long term preference for the black round spinning thingy with the arm, needle and fluff...

Awaiting the bristle count, relative diameters and confirmation from Aggie that your records are cleaner.

Hi Clarke
Nice avatar.
I collect and sell oil lamps (mainly to the trade) as a hobby and I really like the lamp in your avatar. Is it yours? Or just a photo of the net.

Guys,
Bearing (no pun intended) in mind that the guy who designed most of the blue horizon gear is the same person behind the RDC cones and a german audiophile genius IMHO I don't think he would waste his time re-badging an HMV record brush do you?
