Best cleaning disc for BRD/DVD player? (1 Viewer)

[Dennis Nicholls]

There are various cleaning discs available from various vendors. I've tried the Memorex "Lens Cleaner" disc on my decade old Philips 963SA, and a couple of passes brought the player back into the reliable side. Previously it had begun skipping on many SACD discs.


It I can see such an improvement with a $4 from WalMart disc, are there better ones out there with outstanding cleaning abilities?


Or are they all just about the same?


Before trying the disc I'd taken the cover off this drive and blown it out with compressed air from my compressor, so there's not a lot of excess dirt inside anymore.

I've found a few items of info around the web.


The Maxell BR-LC originally had two carefully shaped holes punched in it that created a "wind funnel" that blew dust off the lens. Later versions went to the common plastic brush configuration although Maxell also labeled those as a model BR-LC.


Someone called up Oppo service and asked what they recommend. The answer was they are about all the same and they recommend the Memorex since it's the cheapest.


Great. That's what I already own.
