This may be a little off-topic, but lately, I've been struggling with stuttering from my vinyl. I've come to the realization that maybe I need to clean my stylus and cartridge, but I see quite a few different opinions on the topic.

This article kinda hinted me towards getting either some sort of sponge or some sort of gel solution rather than just a brush.

What are your guys take on cleaning a turntable and its stylus? I'd love a few opinions.
